The present invention provides a golf ball which exhibits excellent durability and provides a long ball distance. The golf ball includes a core and an outer layer wrapping the core, wherein the outer layer is made of a resin composition containing cation-treated phillosilicate having a Shore D hardness of 56 or higher and 75 or lower. In particular, by use of a resin composition containing the cation-treated phillosilicate for a cover layer, the resultant golf ball has high hardness and high stiffness, exhibits excellent flight performance, and also has high durability.
