One sure sign of being an out-of-touch upper echelon manager or mafioso is that you bring your golf clubs to work, so you can practice your putting rather than actually pay attention to anyone who's talking to you. For this very leisurely game, a small, flat field is set up in the office, sometimes with an actual hole but most of the time using a cup or a mug. If the executive in-question is particularly wealthy and/or technology is advanced enough, this may be substituted with virtual golf, where the ball is (typically) hit into a screen which the computer uses the impact to calculate trajectory and other factors. If the executive in question has a bit of a temper, the golf club might turn out to be a Chekhov's Gun. At the very least, deftly practicing your swing while a nervous underling sits by your desk is a good way to get him good and intimidated. Compare Office Sports, which are apt to be played by bored cubicle monkeys rather than bored executives. |

Woozie does this at the Triad's Four Dragons casino in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. His henchmen make sure the blind crime boss always gets a hole in one for self-esteem purposes (he's blind, and none of his other senses would help with the sport), not that he knows it. He subverts the stereotype of who would play such a game – he's a competent Triad boss and administrator. | |

The Suicide Squad. Amanda Waller shows she's Not So Above It All when during a quiet moment in Mission Control she's practicing her putting with mugs. After missing the shot, she gripes that she'll have to do better for her upcoming game with a senator. This serves as a Chekhov's Gun when one of her staff knocks her out with the golf club during her Villainous Breakdown. | |

The head Mobster in The Mask keeps a golf bag on hand. To show his dissatisfaction with ex-right-hand-man Dorian Tyrell, he drives a ball off of the guy's face. He also doesn't just putt in his office; he actually has a driving range simulator. | |

Early in Down Periscope, Dodge gets chewed out by his captain for playing golf off the top of their sub as it was sailing into port. He actually does rather well, hitting a long shot onto shore and getting very close to the hole. | |

In Beetle Bailey, General Halftrack not only goes out golfing a lot even during the workday but also does it in his office frequently (although the theme may have been abandoned by now). He's pretty bad at it. In one strip, Ms. Buxley mistakes his genuinely looking for a lost golf ball (with a hand reaching out from under his desk) for sexual harassment. In another, the general is pleased with his performance only to return later to find Beetle replicating the same using the handle of the mop he's supposed to be cleaning the office with. One strip has him practice his driving in his office while it's raining, using marshmallows in place of balls. | |

Star Trek: Voyager: The holographic Doctor was seen doing this in "Drive", but with a ridiculously futuristic putter and blinking-light golf balls. In "Author, Author", the Doctor creates a holographic novel portraying thinly veiled expies of the crew as jerkasses. Tom Paris gets back at him by creating his own version involving a Dr. Jerk who's obsessed with his recreational hobbies, like golf. |
