The American Golf Adventure Golf National Pairs Championship Final

Competing in the American Golf Adventure Golf National Pairs Championship Final at The Belfry.

It was superb to qualify for and compete in the first American Golf Adventure Golf National Pairs Championship Final held at The Belfry on Friday 8th September. The tournament will be broadcast on Sky Sports Golf later this year.

A pre-final interview with Gemma Care from Sky Sports

Peter and I qualified for the American Golf Adventure Golf National Pairs Championship Final by winning the Welsh Regional Qualifier at Clays Golf Centre in April.

The American Golf Adventure Golf National Pairs Championship Final was played over four rounds - two qualifying rounds of strokeplay, followed by a matchplay semi-final and a matchplay final. Peter and I played well as a team and qualified for the semi-final in second place after rounds of 35 and 34 on the 12-hole Ryder Legends Mini Golf course. We were victorious in our semi-final against the Watford qualifiers Simon and Jake Whitby, but unfortunately lost 3&2 in the final against Bristol qualifiers Simon Lee and Steve Gerrish.

Mini Golf at Clays Golf Centre in Wrexham

Playing the Mini Golf course at Clays Golf Centre in Wrexham.

On Friday 7th April we headed to Wrexham to meet up with our friend Peter Jones to compete in the Regional Qualifier for the 2017 American Golf Adventure Golf Championship at Clays Golf Centre.

Putting at Clays Golf Centre

The event took place on the 9-hole Miniature Golf course where each of the holes is based on famous holes from regular golf. The course has some very long and large layouts.

The course became the 725th visited and 425th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since September 2006.

While we were at Clays Golf Centre we also got to have a play on the indoor Putting Green and the grass Putting Green.

We had a great time at Clays Golf Centre and received a nice welcome from the team at the American Golf store and throughout the centre. We'll definitely revisit in the future.

We haven't played the Adventure Golf courses at the American Golf centres in Clydebank, Bristol or Wrexham, but have played at Croydon, Watford and Trent Lock on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The 18-hole course at Watford's Top Golf centre was one of the first we played way back in 2006.

Back in 2009 I won the the Mini Masters and Miniature Open tournaments held on the Miniature Golf course which used to be at the Trafford Golf Centre. Part of my prize included American Golf vouchers, which I spent at Top Golf in Watford.
