The Temple

Par 3 · 184 yards

184 yards off the top of a Mayan pyramid. The green sits in a clearing far below with the jungle pressing in on every side, bunkers front and back, and the only way down is the buggy ramp that winds round the stone and into the trees. From up there it looks like a postage stamp. Take one club less than the number, aim at the middle and let the drop carry it. Anything off line is somewhere in the canopy and it is staying there.

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.
