Average Time. Conventional wisdom holds that the average time to play a round of 18 holes of golf is approximately four hours. For example, the Hammock Creek golf club in Florida tracked average playing times by month for nearly two years, and the average worked out to four hours and eleven seconds.To finish a round in four hours, you'd need to spend an average of a little over 13 minutes on each hole.f course, playing nine holes is going to take less time than 18 holes any time, any place, and a capable golfer playing solo likely could play a brisk nine holes in about 90 minutes. Scratch players are going to move through a course faster than players with 20 handicaps.
