Travelin' Joe has managed to sleepwalk through midnight rounds in Alaska and Finland, but the idea may have started in Iceland, where there are now 50 or so courses available for both daytime and intrepid late-night golfers.

One way to sample the experience is via the Iceland Open (icelandopen.com), with which Golf Magazine has long been associated. In conjunction with IcelandAir (icelandair.com), the event pairs golfers from around the world with locals for three rounds at Reykjavik Golf Club and Keilir Golf Club.
