What the Golf? platinum and daily challenge guide for PS4 and PS5

PS4 / PS5

In the What the Golf? laboratory, reaching the flag often opens two more challenges on the same hole. Play those while the layout is fresh and hit log terminals as you pass them in the hub. Start the daily challenges early too: finishing the story without them leaves a significant part of the platinum untouched.

57 base trophies on PS4 and PS5; daily challenges are required for platinum.

Difficulty: Clear every campaign variant and complete daily rotations.
Missables: Campaign areas can be revisited. Weekday trophies need their matching challenge.
Online: No matches against other players. Check the daily rotation in the menu.

Start daily challenges before campaign cleanup

Open Daily Challenge from the menu and play the available challenge, checking the result before leaving. Play one for each weekday from Monday to Sunday and get 18 completions for Most Daily Golf. These are separate checks: several completions do not guarantee that you played a missing weekday. Keep visiting the menu while working through the lab instead of waiting until all crowns are done.

Track weekdays and challenge completions on two separate lines.

Earn the crown before leaving each hole

Play the first variant to understand how the object moves, then try the two extra challenges when they open. Some require a certain number of strokes; others change the rule or target. Before leaving an area, check its recorded crowns. If a challenge stops you, continue to the next lab computer and return once you know which variant is missing.

Finishing a hole once does not earn its crown.

Separate the 17 logs from the boss computers

Hit the flashing terminals in the hub and look for the message confirming the log. As a first check, go between the pipes in 8-A, then look right in the green checkerboard room in 8-D. After area 7, check the turnoffs by the toaster and fountain. If one is still missing, trace the map using the 17-log reference: defeating the computers does not replace it.

Tick off each terminal by location even if the note number differs.

Use the telescope and open the three doors

Beat the boss and reach the ending. Full completion still requires all crowns and hidden collectibles. Inspect the area percentages in the trophy room; the telescope in the final room points to a missing item. At 50%, 75% and 100%, return to the trophy room and trigger the corresponding door buttons: waiting in a level room will not award those trophies.

Hit the 100% door button even if the meter is already full.

Leave stroke and playtime totals for cleanup

The list includes 10,000 strokes and ten hours of play. Before replaying a hole solely for those totals, finish daily challenges, find the logs and clear missing variants. If you still need strokes, pick a short hole you can restart quickly and play without leaving the game paused. Update episodes have separate groups and do not replace the base campaign conditions.

Check both totals after crowns and dailies.

Frequently asked questions

Are update episodes required?

No. Sporty Sports, seasonal content and Among Golf have trophies outside the base set. The original dailies do count toward platinum.

Why did 100% not unlock after my last hole?

Check for hidden collectibles, then activate the 100% door in the trophy room. The final-room telescope helps find missing content.

Do I need an opponent for daily challenges?

No. They are solo challenges in their own menu. Check the available rotation and register results rather than counting abandoned runs.
