Underwater Golf: Rules and Regulations

Warning: These are completely made-up, utterly ridiculous rules for a fictional game.

  1. Each golfer must wear a full-body wetsuit with built-in fins, which must be inspected by an official wetsuit inspector before every round.
  2. The ball used in underwater golf must be made of a special, glow-in-the-dark material that can only be obtained from the depths of the ocean.
  3. Players may not use any equipment that could be used for "non-golf-related purposes" such as, but not limited to, breathing.
  4. The course must be at least 50 meters below sea level to be considered "underwater."
  5. Every hole must be exactly 17.5 meters long, with the exception of hole 7, which must be exactly 42 meters long.
  6. A golfer may not use the phrase "par" in any form during the game, lest they face disqualification.
  7. The game of underwater golf must be played during a full moon, when the tides are exactly 37.5 meters high and 27.5 meters low.
