At 848 miles this new phenom of fairways has dominated the competition… in terms of length. This ridiculously long track runs along a desert highway in the Australian Outback. It is a par-71 that goes by the name of Nullarbor Links and has holes in 18 different towns between the states of South Australia and Western Australia. The course spans two time zones and is longer than the entire length of the UK. Golfers will play one hole then drive as much as 100 kilometers to get to the next hole.

Nullarbor Links is scheduled to be completed next month (August 2009). It was conceived five years ago “over a couple of beers”… You dont say!!! I dont think anyone can come up with an idea this crazy without being drunk. It looks like this may be more of a ploy to help boost tourism to a desolate desert highway in the Outback than a legitimate new track.
