The Putting Green is an original mini-golf game on this independent Rory McIlroy fan site. Play on your phone or computer, with no account, app download or payment.

Easy, Hard or Hero?

Find your rhythm on Easy, pick your line on Hard, or commit to the shot on Hero. The same nine holes become more demanding, with tighter crossings and guarded pins. Hero adds border water and white out-of-bounds edges, including marked obstacles: one penalty stroke and a replay from your previous lie, with no rebounds. Earlier Hero rounds and scores remain available under Hero original. Classic 9 is still available. Daily courses change at midnight UTC, and everyone playing the same date and difficulty gets the same challenge. Progress and best scores are separate for each difficulty. Earlier scores remain labelled as legacy records. Two subtle Attack Lines reward precision, and one Championship Hole tests your nerve. A dated share link lets a friend play your course later.

Aim, set your power, then putt.

Tap to aim, drag to adjust direction and power, then press Putt. Bunkers and rough slow the ball and reduce your next shot’s distance in Daily 9; water adds one penalty stroke and returns you to your last position. Keyboard players can use the arrow keys and Space. Your progress and best scores stay in this browser when local storage is available.

Between rounds, explore Rory’s Holywood beginnings, the career timeline and his major championship record. This is fan-made mini golf, not a real course or an official Rory McIlroy game.

WELCOME TO THE GREEN

Three steps. Nine holes.

  1. Pick your line. Tap the course to aim. Drag your target closer or farther to adjust power. The dashed line shows your initial direction.
  2. Find your touch. Use the slider to choose power. Judge the distance by eye; the aiming line shows direction only.
  3. Take the shot. Press Putt. Rails bounce on Easy and Hard. Updated Hero has no rebounds: white OOB edges and water add one stroke and return you to your previous lie. Bunkers and rough slow the ball.

Maximum 10 strokes per hole keeps the round moving. Daily 9 has nine strategic holes, daily pin positions and one Championship Hole. Pins change at midnight UTC. Everyone gets the same course for that date and difficulty. Switching difficulty preserves your other mode’s progress. Earlier rounds stay available as legacy editions.
