DP World and Luke Willett Team Up to Set New Guinness World Record for ‘Fastest 9-Hole Round of Golf’

Luke’s record-breaking performance took place on the Fire Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai, in the run-up to the DP World Tour Championship that gets underway on Thursday. Using just a 3 wood, 6 iron and pitching wedge, in an astounding display of athleticism his official record-breaking achievement was 20 minutes and 12 seconds! What makes this extraordinary in speedgolf terms is that the challenge was made vastly more difficult at the hottest part of the day in sweltering, energy-sapping 34-degree Dubai heat!

We are thrilled that our reigning 2023 British Speedgolf Champion continues to push the boundaries in our sport and has added a Guinness World Record to his already impressive portfolio of achievements.

DP World thrive on efficiency and excellence, and Luke’s record-breaking speedgolf performance perfectly aligns with their ethos. Congratulations to Luke and all the team at DP World who made this possible.

GOLF REIMAGINED!

Speedgolf is a fun, fast, and fitness-oriented alternative to traditional golf. It’s about one sport that unites two of the largest lifestyle communities in the world, Golf and Running! It also satisfies a myriad of today’s modern challenges to a healthy and active lifestyle.

Speedgolfers  think about Pace rather than Speed – finding an optimum pace for their fitness and endurance whilst maintaining their golf shot accuracy. A Speedgolf Score is a combination of Golf Strokes plus the Time to complete the round.

Whether taking a brisk walk, power walk or progressing to a jog, some or all of the time, Speedgolfers should also aim to save time by eliminating practice swings and other time consuming rituals that lead many to over-think their game. In doing so, contrary to what one might expect, many Speedgolfers actually find that their golf game improves!

For a full round at ‘speed’ Speedgolfers need a clear course, which is the main reason that those who practice regularly play at 1st tee. Aside from fewer clubs and suitable attire there are very few rule changes and NOTHING a club has to put in place in terms of equipment.
