Microscope (Portal Golf)
To unlock the Microscope trophy, players must first beat the computer in Lab 6 and enter Lab 7. Once in Lab 7, players must head into the room on the right, which is a small bathroom. In the furthest stall, there will be a broken water pipe that will shuttle the ball into another room. This room is a secret area containing the trophy chest with the Turkey or Champion trophy, depending on the player's platform.
After obtaining the Turkey or Champion trophy, players will enter the top left section of Lab 7, where they will find the Microscope (Portal Golf) level. This level transforms the player's golf ball into a love block. Players must use the portal mechanic to solve the challenges presented in this level.
The Microscope (Portal Golf) level is just one of many unique and creative levels in "What the Golf?", which is available on Apple devices through Apple Arcade, Nintendo Switch, and on Windows through Steam.

Daily Challenges
To complete the daily challenge-related trophies, players must complete a certain number of daily challenges. This includes completing 9 daily challenges and then 18 daily challenges. Players can choose to wait for the days to pass normally or change their system date to achieve these milestones faster. It is important to note that the daily challenges are separate from the 18 daily golf challenges, which must be completed on 18 different days and not on the same day.
Completing the daily challenges is a fun aspect of the game, offering players a chance to explore new concepts and themes while still drawing from their experience in the main campaign. The challenges are designed to be accessible and provide an enjoyable break from the main gameplay. Players can also choose to idle during these challenges if they are aiming to achieve the golf for 5 or 10 hours trophies.
Overall, the daily challenges in What the Golf? add variety and excitement to the gameplay experience, providing players with new puzzles and obstacles to overcome each day while still maintaining the game's signature wacky and absurd tone.

DLC and Clean Up
The final step in the What The Golf? Trophy Guide and Road Map is to tackle any missing items from the base game and then move on to the DLC. The DLC adds a few new episodes to the game and is free for all players. To get the platinum trophy, you need to get all crowns in the first episode and one miscellaneous trophy. For the remaining episodes, you just need to complete them.
To get the elusive 100% completion in the game, you need to get all the trophies. Most of them can be found by fully finishing all flags in a level section. A few are secret and require some clever problem-solving.
- Microscope (Portal Golf): In the top left section of the lab, after entering the tunnel that transforms your golf ball into a love block, there are a series of flags and mechanics referencing the game "Portal". Create portals and use this tricky mechanic to solve the challenges. At the end will be a trophy box with the Microscope trophy.
- Game Controller (First Person Golf): After finishing the right side of the fifth lab, there will be a trophy box with the Game Controller trophy.
- Putter (F=GOLFmM/r^2): This is a secret trophy. You'll briefly see the trophy box on the right side of lab 5, but you can't get it yet. Come back to it after unlocking lab 02. Take the boat ride from lab 2 to find a secret river that leads to a hidden beach with a toaster (located in lab 5).
- Pizza (Kitchen Golf): After entering the fifth lab, go through a tunnel that will transform your golf ball into toast and lead to a cafeteria. On the left side, by the vending machines, there will be a trophy box with the Pizza trophy.
