Answer: C)No, because the golfer did not intend to cause harmful or offensive contact.

Explanation:

The golfer did not intend to harm the instructor with this action which was why she stood a few yards behind him and made sure that the instructor was not within range of the club.

The club slipping from the golfer's hand was simply a mistake that cannot be taken as battery because it was not done intentionally. She was merely trying to make a statement that went awry.
