The present invention is directed towards a wound golf ball that includes a wound core surrounded with a cover material. The wound core is formed of a fluid-filled or solid center, and at least one wound layer segment surrounding the center. The wound layer segment includes a first untreated portion, a first impregnated portion, a second untreated portion and a second impregnated portion. The first impregnated portion is impregnated with a first material, such as latex. In one embodiment, the wound layer segment is formed of two layers, each having an untreated and an impregnated portion. Thus, the multi-layered wound layer segment has an impregnated portion between two untreated portions.
