die kurzen Wege short green-to-tee distances Explanation: 18-hole golf courses are generally around 7000 yards long. That's the sum of the lengths of 18 holes from tee to green. It does not include the distances from the greens to the next tee, some of which can be rather long. I reckon that's what they're referring to here. Otherwise it would be a short course. Which would be understood by golfers as being "easy" or less challenging. And that wouldn't be mentioned as a positive aspect in a marketing text. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2013-11-18 01:32:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Reference?: Have been playing bad golf regularly since age 7. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2013-11-18 01:46:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- More references?: Have played in 10 or so PGA-NRW Pro-Ams.
