Plans for a 10 hole mini-golf course on Saltburn’s lower promenade have come unstuck, because parish councillors fear people may be hit by flying balls struck by over-enthusiastic putters. It's get a life time we think.
“I think its safe to say crazy golf just got a bit weird and boozy.” If that’s not the best quote you read today then we want to read what is. Crazy Golf is hitting the big time, with two adults only indoor courses opening up soon.

The big question today was whether or not Denmark’s Thorbjorn Olesen could keep his cool and hold his lead to win a third European Tour Championship, and keep his tour card whilst he was at it? And there was also the question of would he pick up $800,000? The Dunhill Cup is one of the biggest purses on the European Tour, with a total prize fund of $5,000,000.
It didn’t rain (that much) today, and the crowds came out in their droves. Who says the young guns aren’t already making a difference? They came to see Jordan, and he did not disappoint. In the end he won comfortably with a two under 69 to beat Henrik Stenson by four shots.
No one has been going really low today. The rain has made the rough that much more penal, and focused everyone’s attention on hitting fairways. There’s zero reward in being off-line, and that’s kept it conservative out there today. It’s frankly been a very quiet day indeed. Zzzzzzz.
