Richard & Emily at the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign ahead of the competition
This time the two players were to compete in a three round 45-hole contest, beginning at the brand new 9-hole indoor (in a Bar!) Mini Golf course at The Swingers Club at the Plaza Hotel & Casino, followed by a revisit to the 18-hole Pike's Pass Miniature Golf course at the Adventuredome at Circus Circus, and with a final round at The Putt Park Mini-Golf course.

Despite finishing as the runner-up in the tournament, Emily did receive a unique prize as the Silver Medallist as she received a Bicycle Balloon Hat from The Balloon Guy who was at The Putt Park as part of the two-year anniversary special event at the course.

I'm obviously very sad at losing my Vegas title, but I just didn't have what it took this time.
The balloon bicycle trophy was mcuh better than any prize Rich won in Vegas, so I won in that at least!
