As an employee of Golf Digest (at the U.S. HQ…no such luck in Dubai!), I can tell you with some degree of confidence that having a putting green in the workplace is great for camaraderie, morale, trash-talking, losing money, your short game, and, least importantly, productivity. And although our beloved putting surface may have gone to the great clubhouse in the sky, Tottenham Hotspur has picked up the torch with what is, as far as we know, the first training facility putting green in Premier League history. Forget gelato Fridays and free yoga, this is the kind of HR amenity that truly keeps the comrades happy:

No word yet on whether it’s Bermuda or Bentgrass, but either way we bet current and former Spurs stars/golf addicts Harry Kane and Gareth Bale have had their fair share of fun (and taken their fair share of money) on Hotspur Way links.

As for the putting green’s effect of workplace morale? Well, Spurs just finished top four in the Premier League for the fourth season running and nearly completed the unlikeliest run in Champions League history, falling to fellow PLers Liverpool in the final back in June. Meanwhile, dreaded rivals Arsenal and corporate goliaths Manchester United failed to qualify for Europe’s most prestigious competition yet again, and we’re starting to think we know why…

Like his former Tottenham Hotspur teammate Gareth Bale, Harry Kane is a bit of a golf freak. The England number nine, who calls Centurion Club in Hemel Hempstead home, made our 2018 list of Best Athlete Golfers, clocking in as a 4 handicapper on the back of his first-ever sub-par round (immediately prompting shrieks of “sandbagger!” from our very own Alex Myers.)

While frankly a more meaningful milestone, Kane very nearly claimed the one for which all golfers truly pine—the ever-skittish hole-in-one—on Monday only to be denied in the most brutal fashion imaginable. Spurs fans, you might want to look away.
