Twenty-six percent (26.5%) played between 4 and one-half hours and 5 hours. This means that fifty five (55%) of golfers can complete their round under 4 and a half hours independent of the type of course they play at – i.e. Thirty-five percent (26.5%) played between 4 and 4 and one-half hours. Twenty-nine percent (28.5%) of all rounds for all courses were played in less than 4 hours. See findings below on the fastest courses. Nineteen percent (18.9%) of the courses had average times less than 4 hours. The average for the first round of the day was 3 hours and 46 minutes. Morning rounds averaged 4 hours and 2 minutes and afternoon rounds averaged 4 hours and 21 minutes. Morning rounds were played faster than afternoon rounds. Unsurprisingly, the best days to play were Monday through Thursday (average of 4 hours and 13 minutes) and the worst days were Friday through Sunday (average of 4 hours and 23 minutes). There is great variation in playing time from course to course, day of the week, time of day, and type of course. FAIRWAYiQ’s research indicates that wait time is an extremely important factor leading to player satisfaction or experience. The average elapsed time pace of 4 hours and 17 minutes is acceptable to most players except when there is a player in front of them that is holding them up. This is not a terrible average, of course, but averages are just that, they are averages. The average time it took to play 18 holes was 4 hours and 17 minutes. The full study can be found on the Association’s website. To get factual data on how long it actually takes to play, the Three45 Golf Association conducted a study of 175 golf courses in America. The answer to those questions depends on whom you ask. Can a player really complete a round in 2 hours and 45 minutes?. There is a statistically significant relationship between time to play and the number of rounds recorded per course. Time to play was positively correlated with course length. The five “slowest” courses averaged 4 hours and 50 minutes. The top five “fastest” courses averaged 3 hours and 36 minutes. Ten percent (10.4%) played in over 5 hours. How long does it/should it take to play?.
