The Most Difficult 18th Holes in the UK
By: Golfshake Editor | Fri 10 Jul 2020
Since golf resumed across the UK following lockdown, the Golfshake Score Tracker has been in unprecedented demand, thousands of rounds have been tracked daily, courses are busy, and golfers are keen, providing encouraging signals for the game as we look to emerge from this crisis.
We love studying the statistics collected within the Score Tracker as they provide an insight behind many layouts and venues that don't normally grab headlines. And just one way to showcase this data is by looking at the Most Difficult Holes 18th in the UK. The final hole of the day is always a significant one, but for the Golfshake Community since May, these are the obstacles that have proven to be the most challenging.
Purely looking at 2020 rounds added since the game returned post-lockdown, these scores have been measured from rounds between 68 and 110 by golfers with handicaps between 5 and 23, with at least 30 rounds having been tracked on that particular course during this relatively narrow qualifying period.
Some long, others surprising, based on fresh analysis, here are the Scariest 18th Holes for Summer 2020 on Golfshake!
