CourseE
Elevated Green
Green raised above fairway level
Pronunciation
/ˈɛl.ɪ.veɪ.tɪd ɡriːn/
Definition
A putting surface positioned higher than the approach area, requiring shots to carry uphill to reach it. Elevated greens typically play longer than their measured yardage and are more difficult to hold, as the ball lands on an upslope.
Example
"The elevated green required an extra club."
