The second weekend of German Bundesliga turned into a thriller, as five teams were within a few points in the last round of men’s competition.

MGC Dormagen-Brechten was the sovereign winner of the competition, but all other teams had a chance for anything between 2nd and 6th place during the last round.

BGS Hardenberg-Pötter visited the bottom of score table during the last round, but then came back into the game, and survived as the winner of the clash between five teams, taking the second place and 8 valuable league points. MGC Mainz landed third (one point behind Hardenberg), and now shares the lead of Bundesliga with Dormagen-Brechten.

Women’s league started with a clean table, as the scores of the first weekend had been cancelled. MGC Mainz took again the first place (as in the cancelled competition), but Göttingen passed Neutraubling to catch the second place. Olching landed again on fourth place, and Bensheim-Auerbach beat Uerdingen to take the fifth place.

League tables  after competition 2 / 6

The best player of the competition, and the only one on blue total score, was former national team member Alexander Junkermann of MGC Dormagen-Brechten, with an average score 19.00 (18 19 19 20). The best female player was Nicole Gundert-Greiffendorf of MGC Mainz, with an average score 20.00 (18 20 21 21).

Some of the biggest names of German minigolf have found themselves at the wrong end of score table in the two first competitions of German Bundesliga 2008. Daniel Klosek landed on the second-last place in the first competition at the felt course of Leipzig. In this second competition at the eternite course of Göttingen, Walter Erlbruch was literally “the last man standing” (together with Czech superstar Karel Molnár) — and the rest of the lower end of score table was occupied by national team members Achim Braungart-Zink, Alexander Geist and Marco Templin.
