# You Won This Hole You Won This Hole is an image macro series pulled from the 2014 Nintendo 3DS game Mario Golf: World Tour, where victory screens show characters like Waluigi and Daisy posing above the subtitle 'you won this hole.' Tumblr users spotted the double entendre within weeks of the Japanese release, turning the screenshot into one of the most reposted sex-joke templates of the mid-2010s. ## Origin Mario Golf: World Tour launched in Japan on May 1st, 2014, with victory animations that captioned each hole win with the line 'You won this hole'[3]. The screen was pure stock Nintendo copy; the meme is a fan reading of it. The earliest documented edit came the following month on Tumblr, where user neatpotatoes posted Waluigi's victory screen with the caption 'when they say their dick is 8 inches,' a post that collected more than 96,000 notes over the next four years[1]. Nintendo developed the game and the animation; the double-entendre repost is where the meme itself begins. - **Platform:** Mario Golf: World Tour / Tumblr (viral spread) - **Creator:** Unknown - **Date:** 2014 ## Overview You Won This Hole takes the end-of-hole victory screens from Mario Golf: World Tour, in which characters smile, pump their fists or strike a pose while the game writes 'YOU WON THIS HOLE' across the top of the frame, and reads the subtitle as a sex joke. Waluigi's screen is the most reposted version because of his wide grin and open-armed stance, but Daisy, Peach and other roster members appear in later edits[2]. The format works like a two-panel setup gone wrong. Captions on top set up a punchline about penis size, body count or a sexual boast, and the Mario Golf screen pays it off by congratulating the partner on winning 'this hole'[1][3]. The humor hinges on cheerful Nintendo mascots being dropped into contexts Nintendo would never sign off on, and the single phrase doing all the innuendo work. ## How to Use The common convention is to pair a top caption that sets up a sexual brag or expectation with the unedited Mario Golf 'You won this hole' screen as the reply. Waluigi is the default character, but swapping in Daisy, Peach or an unrelated character like RuneScape's Gnome Child is a frequent variation[3][5]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is You Won This Hole?
