Greg Newport broke the all-time record of Putt-Putt minigolf competitions of 8 rounds, as he won the PPA Eastern Open 2011 with score 185 (average 23.13).

A lower score than this has actually been played once in Putt-Putt history, as Cliff Matthews scored 8 consecutive rounds 182 (average 22.75) in the first 8 rounds of a tournament that consisted 12 rounds.

The score 185 played now by Greg Newport is the tied second best row of 8 consecutive rounds in PPA history, and the best score of all time in a competition that includes 8 rounds exactly.

Putt-Putt minigolf courses have a felt surface and steel walls, and the game is played with a golf ball and golf putter.
