Do lefties have an advantage? In general, I would say no, they do not have an advantage, if anything the sport is even more challenging. But, on some holes and certain shots they might have an advantage depending on the shot shape they play.

Should left-handed people play golf left-handed?

The dominant brain: Whether left-handed or right-handed, one of your brain hemispheres is more dominant than the other. Again, choosing a side to play golf based on your dominant brain is not unanimous. Either way, you will need them both to hit every golf shot.
