For the Old Course at Saint Andrews (ancient and well-known golf course), holes do have names. See the Wikipedia page or the website. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Course_at_St_Andrews#Scorecard I think tags on OSM should be (it is not the case currently): ref=1 name=Burn ref=2 name=Dyke

I think people use the ref tag because that makes sense. I'm not a golfer but on allotments the whole site usually has a name and the individual plots have a number (ref=*). The OSM Standard map can't show everything. We used to have a map like that as a sort of 'debug' map for mappers; it was

Yet more golf... sigh. Many of the golf tags (golf=green, tee, fairway) are combined with landuse=grass. And other golf tags (water_hazard as an example) use the key natural. To may way of thinking these should use the surface tag e.g. surface=grass, that clearly shows that the surface is
