Minigolf Report - Adventure Island Minigolf League – Final Result

Luton Minigolfer Richard Gottfried finished in 2nd place in the Adventure Island Minigolf League held at Star City in Birmingham after being beaten to the title by one point. After nine weeks of play the final rankings in the League were decided on Monday 29th September with reigning World Crazy Golf Champion Chris Harding taking the league title with 31 points, with Richard on 30 points.

Richard had faced a week long wait to confirm his final ranking position having finished his matches with a total of 30 points from 14 matches. He was guaranteed a place in the top two and had been the league leader for four of the league’s nine weeks.

Only Chris Harding posed a threat to the number one spot having three games in hand. Chris needed to gain six points in his three final matches to overhaul Richard. In his matches on Monday Harding achieved two wins and a loss in order to lift the trophy. Jam Trubridge finished in third place.

Gottfried said “Congratulations to Chris who managed to hold it together just enough to beat me in his penultimate game. It was very close at the top of the table and to be beaten by just one point is a bit disappointing, but I’m proud of my win/loss record in the league and I’m looking forward to the challenge of the Winter League starting soon.”
