Learn the rules of Golf Solitaire

Use the rule sheet as a reference. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.

Bring this focus to a round
