Unofficial Glossary (tongue in cheek)
After seeing the woes and the stress that is caused by poor coding and poor design decisions, how about something that tries to reach the lighter side of it all for a change? Perhaps build a list ...

Another term that is inspired by another pollster.
Bull’s Heist = Winning a daily/weekly tournament, but are ranked below the players they defeat.
Change-up: When you hit a bunker because you need a sand save, and the game put your ball in the rough for your next shot instead of keeping it in the bunker.
EA Sports Foot Wedge: when your shot lands next to the lip of a bunker but when you get to the ball it’s right in the middle of the bunker and very playable. It’s almost as if the game developers are Patrick Reed fanboys.
"I'm so Mean": Needing a par save, using the crowd around the green to stop the ball on a long par 3 when I need a 3 Hybrid with strong wind behind me. 😞

Thanks for giving me the inspiration for the term from another post you made with the screenshot.
The next term comes from a bug on the Challenges.
The In-Crowd = having your shot and view blocked because of being boxed in and surrounded by the crowd.
These next terms are related to the update that ruined the game.
The Notorious Update Three = the update that introduced the “Lipout Physics” and ruined the putting mechanics.
Simmer’s Paradise = the bug report that introduced the Notorious Update Three.
Straight Outta Manhole = the expected result of update 3 where the ball rolls over the hole like it was not there.
Laid Back = Putting physics before the introduction of the Notorious update three.

At this point, I shall name it forever the "Elf's Manhole Cover Request Update" since that's where it's coming from.

I actually like your naming. It makes sense to name it from the source.
This term is inspired by one of @Katybee_1313 post.
Andrei Vasilevskiy’s Net = the size of the hole after the Notorious Update Three. The hole just got smaller due to multiple lipouts like Andrei Vasilevskiy of the Tampa Bay Lightning is at the net.
These terms are related to the lack of selection of Women’s socks/shoes.
Gone Postal = the black socks assigned to female golfers that makes them look like postal workers.
Potato Bag Itch = a female golfer nicely dressed in a white skirt and white blouse to go along with the postal worker socks. This term is inspired by another post from @Katybee_1313.
I just watched Furiosa this week and I have a term based on a previous post.
Fast and Furiosa = Glitchy Animation that occurs when Quick Putt is used.
Torretto Spam = Constantly using quick putt even though it is not recommended.
Cuss word day: Random 4 holes tournament at Evian.

Love this word. Just inspired me to use for the next word.
Let’s Get Ready to F-U: Any Sim Tournament at Wolf Creek with 10+ mph winds.

I had a few yesterday. On the par 3 hole, I had a putt less than 10 feet left of the hole, show no break. It gave me a weird putting line ending about 6 inches right of the hole. Started a bit left and sure enough... it broke sharply and ended 6 inches right. On the next hole par 5, I ended about 10 feet on the right side of the hole. Green was showing me a sharp left break and game me a straight putting line. I started a bit right and it went as straight as the putting line was showing. Ridiculous.
I hit the pin on that par 3, and the ball ended in the rough. On the par 5, my short putt went sideways. I reboot and went -6.
Just got some new terms on courses notorious for missing putts that is not Wolf Creek.
Never-ian = Evian because missing 3 putts can change tournament score from Elite or Top Ranked to Not Ranked.
Missey Pines = Torrey pines since multiple putts within 3 ft of the hole can be missed. I remembered missing an auto-putt within 1 ft of the hole costing me a birdie.
