Mario Golf: Super Rush

Mario Golf: Super Rush are a series of golfing tournaments and Anna's story into being qualified for Battle Golf after saving its many courses from the wild weather.

History

Day 1

During a televised event of Battle Golf, a series of unfortunate incidents happening to Wario, Waluigi, and Bowser cause Mario to win the tournament. Meanwhile, the welcoming ceremony for the new golfing rookies, Toadette, Chargin' Chuck, Boo, and Anna, was due to happen tomorrow. Birdo, the camp-house mama, had everyone introduce themselves before everyone went to bed for the initiation.

Day 2

It was the initiation ceremony for the four new rookies. The head coach handed out a golfwatch to each of the rookies, which did a lot such as tracking stats or recording scores. Everyone started with a Steel Badge, but better badges could be earned with the more Badge Qualifiers that were won. Everyone took a few golf lessons in the Bonny Greens Practice Area, the Rookie Course, before taking a Qualifying Round on the main course. All of the rookies were then eligible for the Bonny Green Open, which will happen tomorrow.

Day 3 & 4

The 2-day Bonny Greens Open occurred. Anna passes through all the holes with flying colors which caused her Steel Badge to be improved to Chrome.

Day 5

Thanks to her Chrome Badge, Anna was allowed access to the course at Ridgerock Lake. Unfortunately, the big storm a few days prior did a lot of damage to the course, so there weren't any tournaments for a little while. However, players could still play Cross-Country Golf, so Anna played a practice round of XC Gold before playing some standard rounds. After enough rounds, she qualified for a Badge Qualifier XC Golf, but things needed to be set up that day.

Day 6

The Badge Qualifier at Ridgerock Lake occurred; Anna played 9 holes of XC Golf and had her badge improved to a Bronze Badge. Despite having the qualifications, the road to Balmy Dunes hadn't been fixed yet, so Anna sought Stinger Shot and Special Shot lessons from Master Stinger. Thanks to his lessons, Anna gained the ability to break boulders via Special Shots.

After playing a challenge, the road to Balmy Dunes was now open. The area's heat wave required all members to enter with a bottle of water for safety reasons. Anna's Bronze Badge didn't qualify her for Standard Golf, but Speed Golf. After playing a practice round, Anna registered for a standard round which had to happen at dawn due to the intense heat that happened later in the day.

Day 7

A standard round of Speed Golf at Balmy Dunes later, Anna could now register for the back nine. However, due to flooding, getting past the 14th hole was not possible. She registered anyway and used a Special Shot to break the boulder that was causing the flooding.

Thanks to Anna, the 18 holes were now accessible for all players, and she registered for the 18-hole Speed Golf Badge Qualifier. After playing a round, Anna has her badge improved from Bronze to Silver, which allowed her access to Wildweather Woods, Princess Peach's private golf estate. Although the heavy rain doesn't allow any tournaments to be hosted, Anna still was able to play a practice round to be granted clubhouse privileges. Anna then registered for a front nine round of Speed Golf, with staff present for thunderstorm concerns.

Anna then learned about Lob Shots and received a lob wedge from Master Lob. After talking to Master Lob, Anna then had to seek out Master Duff, who taught her the way of the Duff. After learning enough Duff, Anna talked to the Wildweather Woods coach who told her about a pair of unusual gentlemen that had been making a lot of noise at the statue area. The two seemed to be Wario and Waluigi who had been searching for a Lightning Sword.

After the two left, a disembodied voice then presented a trilogy of trials to Anna, the final trial being a duel against the voice possessing a suit of armor. After Anna passed the trials and obtained the Lightning Sword, Wario and Waluigi returned to explain that the sword can conjure up thunderclouds and lightning. Waluigi blurted out they need it to find a treasure.

After the duo left, the voice returned to explain that the extreme weather is due to the evil Snow King reemerging after being previously melted away by Bowser. The hot weather that resulted in it caused pollen from the Tree of Sleep to spread, which Bowser inhaled and had him fall into a deep slumber. To help defeat the Snow King, Anna also had to seek the power of the Sacred Flamebeast in Balmy Dunes; their Fire Gem could help combat the Snow King's ice power.

Journeying to Balmy Dunes' Treasure Corner, Anna found the Fire Gem and battled the Sacred Flamebeast. Anna then headed to Mount Snow, but only Gold Badge members couls travel there. The weather, despite being cleared up, did not allow any tournaments to happen yet, but Anna could still register for a Special Match among the Pros. After winning first place, Anna's badge was upgraded to Gold which allowed her to head into Mount Snow. After heading there, Anna found that the town was entirely frozen with all of its inhabitants under a block of ice. Using the Fire Gem's Power of Flame, everyone was unfrozen, allowing Anna to continue on further to the Snow King's domain.

Taking Wario and Waluigi along, the lava monsters and snowballs impeded the trio's progress. Wario and Waluigi decided to hold the fort, defending Anna to keep her safe in nabbing the treasure for them. The disembodied voice then granted the duo enough lightning power to keep them amped up in defeating the monsters. Anna continued on alone but was ambushed by a group of monsters. Suddenly, Mario appears; Toad had called him earlier and he arrived just in time. With the two together, they reached the peak of Mount Snow, but Mario was then thrown inside a cage by the Snow King himself, meaning Anna has to fight him alone.

After reducing the Snow King to just a head, Wario, Waluigi, and Bowser appeared. Bowser used his Power of Flame to melt the Snow King and return his course back to Bowser Highlands, and the rookie was approved to play in Battle Golf. Everyone then celebrated.
