Back tees, often referred to as the championship or tournament tees, are the furthest set of tees on a golf course. They are designed to challenge more experienced players by increasing the distance of each hole. This allows for a more difficult and strategic game, as players must navigate longer fairways and more complex course layouts. Typically marked in a different color, back tees can vary in distance from one course to another. They are usually placed behind the other tee boxes, such as the middle tees and forward tees, providing a greater challenge for skilled golfers while offering a different experience on the same course.
