Do we have the technology to play minigolf using subatomic particles?

If the particles become waves when no one is looking that is ok a little cheating and magic is in the spirit of minigolf handwaving.

I am NOT talking about making a putter and golfball and snapping a cute shot I am dead serious I want to play the tiniest golf possible.

but the roundness of the ball, I don't know enough about the specific processes to know how you might go about that

Perhaps a single molecule of buckminsterfullerene would work?

~$200 for 8.3e20 tiny golf balls? Pretty good deal if you ask me.
