19th Hole

Tee Time Magazine’s 19th Hole

In golf, the nineteenth hole is a slang term for a pub, bar, or restaurant on or near the golf course, very often the clubhouse itself.^[1] A standard round of golf has only eighteen holes of play.^[2] An alternate term for a bar is a “watering hole;” thus, by extension, continuing the day after 18 holes of golf at a watering hole makes the bar a “nineteenth hole.” – Wikipedia

At Tee Time Magazine we dedicate our 19th hole to sharing interesting articles highlighting the finer things in life that can be enjoyed after an exhilarating day on the course.
