The Pothole Omnium was a special golf tournament played under Q'Naabian rules. Its first prize was the engineering team responsible for developing the Melbourne-class. It was played on an urban course with potholes serving as golf holes.

A riot happened rather early in the tournament, where the true nature of the tournament as a stage for pirate cartels to do their turf wars, such as the Orion Syndicate, was revealed. It was won by the Antechrist team by virtue of playing a better back nine than the Kessok. (Star Trek: False Vacuum: "Pothole Omnium")

The course[]

Par for the course was 73.

Hole 1[]

That hole was a par-3 and was the location of the first hole-in-one, hit by a Kessok player.

Hole 2[]

As with hole 1, it also was a par-3. On the other side of the city block was hole 5.

Hole 3[]

It was a 481-meter-long, par-5 hole, where the hole was 20 meters uphill from the teeing area. It was lined up with cottages, as was the case for holes 1, 2 and 5.

Hole 4[]

This 351-meter-long, par-4 hole was lined up with bungalows rather than cottages.

Hole 5[]

This hole was opposite hole 2.

Hole 12[]

That hole had multiple sewer portholes that served as water hazards.

Hole 18[]

That hole was a double-dogleg, par-5 hole. Faith Kingsford commented on the hole that it was reminiscent of Dinkytown in Minneapolis, due to the presence of houses on one leg, commercial space after the first dogleg, and apartment buildings after the second dogleg. The first dogleg was marked with a water hazard that was actually a sewer repair site.
