The 2009 Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament

Looking back at the 2009 Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament.

I won the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf competition 16 years ago today.

We played in the Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament at the Adventure Golf course in Blackpool 16 years ago today. The event was held as part of the Illuminations celebrations.

We had a cracking time in the seaside resort and to top things off I won!

The trophy for the tournament is still one of the best I've seen in the world of minigolf!

The 2009 Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament in Blackpool.

The second Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament was played on the 12-hole Adventure Golf course. After three rounds and 36-holes I won the tournament with a score of 81, eight shots ahead of runner-up John Moore, and 17 shots ahead of third-placed Steve Gow.

My first round score of 24 also smashed the previous course record. And it's still the official course record on the layout.

I shot the course record - a 24 in the first round of the 2009 Pleasure Beach Open. However, Peter McGillivray's name and round of 25 shots has been up on the board since 2016! But I'm not bitter about it lol

A look back at a big minigolf win.

On this day in 2009 we were in Blackpool to play in the second Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament that was held as part of the Illuminations celebrations.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf

We had a look at the Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course on a return visit to Blackpool earlier this week.

In September 2009 I won the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament on the course.

I believe the course had a refresh recently. It looks to be in good condition.

I shot the course record - a 24 in the first round of the 2009 Pleasure Beach Open. However, Peter McGillivray's name and round of 25 shots has been up on the board since 2016! I'm not bitter about it lol

Revisiting the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

I was in Blackpool yesterday and had to swing by the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

The weather was a bit different to my last visit in May.

In September 2009 I won the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open minigolf tournament on the course.

We first visited the 12-hole adventure golf course in 2008 when we helped to launch the course and competed in the inaugural Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament. The course was number 44 on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Visit the Blackpool Pleasure Beach website for more information.

It's still annoying that my name has never been up on the hut as I've got the course record - a 24 in the first round of the 2009 Pleasure Beach Open. Peter McGillivray's name and round of 25 shots has been up on the board since 2016

There used to be another minigolf course inside the Pleasure Beach - an Alpine themed one. That was the 46th course played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The Alpine Golf course at the Pleasure Beach is now a lost course

The Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course

A revisit to the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

On Monday 20th May I was in Blackpool and swung by the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

Going to the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course always bring a smile to my face, as it was the scene of my victory in the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament in 2009.

As it was just before the season got underway the course wasn't open.

We first visited the course in 2008 when we helped to launch the course and competed in the inaugural Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament. The course was number 44 on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Visit the Blackpool Pleasure Beach website for more information on prices and opening times.

A revisit to the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

We were lucky enough to visit Blackpool twice in August last year and that meant we were able to revisit a number of miniature golf courses.

Visiting the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course always bring a smile to my face as it was the scene of my victory in the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament in 2009.

We first visited the course in 2008 when we helped to launch the course and competed in the inaugural Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament - won by minigolf legend Chris Harding. The course was number 44 on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Visit the Blackpool Pleasure Beach website for more information on prices and opening times.

Check out the blog post from our visit to the course on a sunnier day in early August.

A visit to Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf

Revisiting the Adventure Golf course at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

On our recent trip to Blackpool we had a look at the Adventure Golf course at the Pleasure Beach.

The course always bring a smile to my face as it was the scene of my victory in the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament in 2009.

Winning in 2009

We first visited the course in 2008 when we helped to launch the course and competed in the inaugural Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open tournament - won by minigolf legend Chris Harding. The course was number 44 on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We're now up to 833 course visits!

It's was nice to see the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course was still proving to be a popular attraction. Although it's still annoying that my name has never been up on the hut as I've got the course record - a 24 - not this Peter McGillivray character and his round of 25.

My first round in the 2009 Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open competition was a 24. Peter McGillivray's name and round of 25 shots has been up on the board since 2016

His name is still there today

Balls

My April Fools' Day story yesterday may have been a load of balls, but chipping in a rugby ball shaped golf ball might've got me closer to the hole than all these shots with pro minigolf balls.

At the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course in 2008. Time has certainly flown by since that visit

On our trip to Blackpool in October we walked passed the Adventure Golf course at the Pleasure Beach.

It's great to see the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf course is still proving popular.
