MINIGOLF: Open Championship Returns to Hastings
The annual British Open Minigolf Tournament will once again be held on the Pirate Course at Hastings Adventure Golf this weekend.
Last year’s champion Adam Kelly
England’s Adam Kelly returns to defend the title he won last year, when he shot an astonishing 70-under-par aggregate to win by ten shots from Sweden’s Erik Hjalmarsson.
Reigning World Crazy Golf champion, Rocky Bullin, and internationally-renowned PGA golf coach and podcast creator, Peter Finch, are among the field of around 70 contestants. With 836,000 subscribers and 237 million views racked up on Youtube, Peter will be laying his reputation on the line when he competes in the mini format.
There will also, as usual, be a cast of international competitors. As well as from home nations, players from Germany, Austria, Hungary and even New Zealand have enrolled to take part.
The total cash prize fund is likely to exceed £1,000, and the overall winner will gain automatic entry into the World Adventure Golf Tour Final taking place in Czechia next year.
