How to play Easy Golf

A quick game: empty the seven columns by playing cards one by one onto the waste pile.

History & origin of Easy Golf

Golf is a fast solitaire named after the way it is scored: as in the sport, the fewer “points” (cards left in the tableau) the better. It belongs to the family of games where you discard cards onto a single pile, following an up-or-down order.

The idea is to clear the seven columns by playing cards, one by one, onto the waste — always one rank above or below the top card. It is accessible and brisk, ideal for a game between tasks.

Being simple and addictive, it became a fixture of computer and mobile solitaire collections, often with a score system for chained games.

Facts about Easy Golf

  • The name comes from golf-style scoring: the goal is to finish with as few stuck cards as possible.
  • In classic Golf there is no wrap: Ace and King do not connect. In the easy version they do, opening up many more moves.
  • There are no foundations by suit — everything goes onto a single waste pile.
  • Long runs (playing several cards in a row) are the key to clearing the board.

How to play Easy Golf step by step

  1. Goal: empty the seven columns by playing cards, one by one, onto the waste.
  2. Play any uncovered card that is one rank above or below the top of the waste, any suit.
  3. The difference: here it wraps — the Ace connects with the King and vice versa, so there are many more moves.
  4. Use that to chain long runs and clear whole columns.
  5. No moves? Click the stock to turn a new card.
  6. Plan: with wrapping allowed there is almost always a path — think before you draw.
