Isaac Rowlands, a 25-year-old assistant PGA professional from The Grove near Watford, Hertfordshire, has completed a staggering 32-hour marathon of continuous golf, potentially setting a new Guinness World Record for the longest time spent playing golf consecutively.
To make his ambitious record attempt possible, Rowlands chose the stunning Lofoten Links golf course in northern Norway, where the midnight sun provides 24 hours of daylight during the summer. Thanks to this unique natural phenomenon, he was able to play uninterrupted from start to finish — swinging clubs through day and night without a single break for darkness.
Over the 32-hour stretch, Rowlands completed multiple rounds, covering miles on foot and hitting hundreds of shots in one of the world’s most scenic — and remote — courses. He now awaits official verification from Guinness World Records to confirm if his feat will enter the history books.
“It was one of the most physically and mentally demanding challenges I’ve ever faced, but also one of the most rewarding,” said Rowlands after completing the challenge.
The current world record for the longest continuous golf session is under review as Guinness officials assess footage, scorecards, and witness statements from the event. If confirmed, Rowlands will become the new titleholder for the longest consecutive time spent playing golf, a feat that celebrates endurance, love for the sport, and human determination.
From the fairways of Norway under a sun that never sets, Isaac Rowlands has swung his way into potential sporting immortality — proving that true passion knows no time limits.
