Our tightest imagined hole yet. Just 122 yards, but every one of them threads a narrow avenue of blazing autumn trees to an island green ringed by water, reached only by a low walkway tucked round the back. There is no bail out and nowhere to miss. Squeeze it through the gap and hold the island, or spend the walk up wondering where your ball went. Pure nerve, dressed in gold and crimson.
This hole is not real. Like every hole in the collection it was conjured with AI, a golf daydream rather than a course you can go and play. The thousands of courses in the Golf Handicapp app, however, are very real.
This one is make-believe. The thousands of courses in the app are not.
