Chip Shots: What if Every Hole was a Water Hole?

August 21, 2012 | By Tom Treloar | Leave a Comment

Looking for a better golf challenge? How about playing a course where every hole is a water hazard? In fact, all 18-holes would be anchored to the bottom of the ocean! Recently, the Daily Mail reported on plans to start building a floating golf course in the Maldives for £320 million!

Underwater tunnels would connect players to each hole and the entire project would be very eco-friendly. And while this all sounds really cool, it should be noted that this is just one part of a huge plan to save the Maldives islands (which scientists say are sinking into the sea). But what’s even more cool is that they’ve decided to build the golf course first! Hey – you can’t rebuild a nation without first getting your priorities straight!
