Elf's Short Course

Elf's Short Course is a golf course that appears in Mario Golf: Advance Tour. It is a Par 3 only course, like Congo Canopy and Sky Island. The course is owned by Elf, who asks the player (Neil or Ella) if they were "the little nymph that beat the course before," which is referencing Kid. Afterwards, he tells the player that he has greatly increased the difficulty of the course since Mario Golf. To complete the course, the player must hit the ball on the green, then putt the ball into the hole. Missing the green or the hole results in a failure. It is just like the "One-on, One-putt" from Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour.

When the Game Mode Near-Pin is selected, Elf's Short Course is the only playable course on the minigame.
