Minigolf Report – Gottfried Runner-up in the latest GMGC Club Tournament


Ahead of the start of the new British Minigolf Association (BMGA) Tour Season Luton Minigolfer Richard Gottfried travelled to the Green Indoor Mini Golf course in Hither Green to take part in the latest GMGC Thursday night Club Tournament.

In the two-round six player event Gottfried recorded scores of 35(-1) and 34(-2) for a total of 69(-3), 53 with his +8 GMGC Handicap. This was enough to secure second place in both the handicapped and unhandicapped result lists. William Donelly won the handicap event, with Nick Sandqvist winning the unhandicapped rounds.

The first round of the tournament was played using the course's 'Hard' settings, while the second round used the 'Easy' obstacles.

Following the event Richard said "I am pleased to have hit two good rounds, and to have recorded a new Swedish Felt personal best with my first competitive round on the course following some hole modifications is great."

Great performance Squire... you're improving after the poor start to 2011. Especially with all the pressure you're under, what with a price on your head....
