This reminds me of a different direction you could take to spice up a golf game There was this joke indie game I played that starts up with all this evocative literary detail about this guy's failing marriage and troubled drug addict son and quiet desperation

And there's all this buildup to how the one thing he's been working toward his whole life has been getting this promotion at work, and he has the golf date with his boss and his buddies And then the actual game is just this generic golf game

And then the endings drop back into Great American Novel mode and what happened in the game determines whether the character becomes a hypocritical plutocrat or runs off to the mountains to find himself or dies by suicide

(The "winning" ending requires that you take second place but let the boss actually win)

He gets the promotion and embraces the empty promises of the American Dream and is able to throw money at all his problems to make them seem to go away (his wife doesn't leave, he sends the kid to a military academy)

It's very clearly a parody of John Updike
