What You'll Learn
Getting crowns for all levels
The game has 11 areas, starting at area 10 and counting down. While you only need to complete the first task in each level to progress through the game, it is highly recommended to complete all three parts of each level to make things easier. Collectible-wise, look out for terminals, of which you need all of them for a trophy, and boxes/chests, which award an in-game item and a trophy. Most of the boxes are earned by getting all the crowns in a subarea, but some are more hidden.
Each section of the lab has a locked door that can only be opened if you have a crown on every flag in that area. Once you have the required crowns, you can enter the room and collect the item in the chest.
For example, in Level 09, get a crown on every flag on the left side during the Main Campaign, then open the chest in that area to receive the 2D Golf Trophy. On the right side of Level 09, get a crown on every flag to receive the Livingroom-Golf Trophy.
You can choose to master each flag as you reach them, earning a crown on every minigame, or you can tackle the base objective of each minigame first and then use the Chapter Select navigation in the pause menu to go back and earn crowns.
There are also daily challenges, and you will need to complete 18 in total, with at least one from every day of the week. You can do these legitimately and wait 18 days, or change the date on your console to complete them sooner.

Daily challenges
To unlock the “Daily Golf” trophy, you need to complete a Daily Challenge. In the lobby area, you will see a small node called “Daily Course” to the right of the entrance to the Main Campaign. You can access the daily challenges by hitting your ball into this flag. A new set of daily objectives are added each day.
To unlock the “More Daily Golf” trophy, you need to complete a Daily Challenge on 9 different days. You can either do this legitimately and wait 9 days, or you can change the date on your console to complete them all in one go.
To unlock the “Most Daily Golf” trophy, you need to complete a Daily Challenge on 18 different days, as well as each day of the week. Each day of the week has a different theme for the daily challenge, but nothing will be too different from what you've experienced before. Again, you can either wait 18 days or change the dates on your console.
To unlock the “Sunday Daily Challenge” trophy, you need to complete a Daily Challenge on a Sunday.
To get crowns on every level, you can tinker with your settings. For instance, forcing V-sync from the Nvidia control panel and then setting the game's max frame rate to 39fps has helped some players beat the "survive for 33 seconds" challenge.

Step 1: Complete the Main Campaign
Play through the main campaign, which consists of 11 areas, starting at area 10 and counting down. While you only need to complete the first task in each level, it's recommended to complete all three parts of each level to make things easier. Collect terminals, boxes, and chests to obtain all collectibles and crowns for each level.
Step 2: Daily Challenges
Complete 18 daily challenges, ensuring you do at least one from every day of the week. You can either wait for 18 days to complete these legitimately or change the date on your console to finish them all in one go.
Step 3: DLC and Clean Up
Tackle the free DLC episodes, which add new content to the game. Get all crowns in the first episode and obtain one miscellaneous trophy. For the remaining episodes, simply complete them without worrying about crowns.
Step 4: Check Your Progress
If you're unsure whether you've achieved 100% completion, there are a few ways to check. You can view your percentage complete for each area in the trophy room, or hit the telescope in the final room to see what you might be missing.

Step 1: Main Campaign
Play through the main campaign, which consists of 11 areas, starting at area 10 and counting down.

Step 2: Crowns and Chests
To get crowns, you'll need to complete each level under three different conditions. Earning a crown for a level means you've completed all three versions of that level's flag. These crowns are essential to accessing certain chests. Each section of the lab has a locked door that requires crowns from every flag in that area to open. Once you have enough crowns, enter the room and collect the item in the chest.
Step 3: Daily Challenges
Take on the daily challenges, completing at least 18 in total, with one from every day of the week. You can do these legitimately over 18 days or speed things up by changing the date on your console.
Step 4: DLC and Clean Up
Tackle the free DLC episodes, getting all crowns in the first episode and a miscellaneous trophy. For the remaining episodes, simply complete them without worrying about crowns.
Step 5: Track Progress
If you're unsure what you're missing, you can check your progress in two ways. First, look at the percentage complete for each area in the trophy room. Second, hit the telescope in the final room to see what you might be missing.
By following these steps and keeping an eye out for collectibles, you should be well on your way to getting 100% completion in What The Golf.
