Disclosed is a golf cup equipped with a golf ball ejection device, comprising: a golf cup; a movable part that allows a lower end of a golf flagstick to be inserted therein and removed therefrom, the movable part being movable vertically with the golf flagstick inserted therein; a guiding part that guides the movable part in an up-down direction; an elastic member provided on the bottom of the movable part and having a force to return the movable part being pushed down in the guiding part to an original position thereof; a transmission part connected to the movable part and transmitting a downward acting force to a drive part; the drive part that converts the downward acting force to an upward acting force; a rising part that rises by receiving the force from the drive part; and a bottom plate part that rises by being connected to the rising part. The golf cup equipped with a golf ball ejection device has a function such that, when a golf ball has dropped into the cup with the flagstick inserted, the movable part can be pushed down by gripping the flagstick and pushing it down by hand, whereby the bottom plate part rises through the action of the drive part to push up and eject the golf ball in the cup near the ground level. Thereafter, upon the flagstick being released from the hand, the rebound of the elastic member pushes up the movable part to return the flagstick and the bottom plate part to original positions thereof.
