Hello <<First Name>>

The World Crazy Golf Championships were due to take place at Hastings Adventure Golf this weekend.

Unfortunately it's another thing the coronavirus pandemic has put a stop to.

We both made our debuts in the 2007 edition when it was known as the Virgin Money World Crazy Golf Championships. It was Emily's first ever miniature golf tournament.

We can still remember the excitement we had approaching the seafront courses for the first time back in October 2007.

The World Crazy Golf Championships began in 2003. Two-time, back-to-back World Crazy Golf Champion Marc 'The Force' Chapman was due to defend the title in what would have been the 18th edition of the event.

The 18-hole Crazy Golf course at Hastings Adventure Golf in East Sussex turned 45 years old this year, having opened on Saturday 21st March 1975.

The course was the 39th we played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Check out the Hastings Adventure Golf website for more information on the three 18-hole courses.

Happy minigolfing whether you're Putting at Home, or if you're able to safely play the game on a course where you are in the world.

All the very best,

Richard and Emily
