The defending Danish champions from Putter Team Odense opened the new season of the national league with a maximum score of 10 points as the first of four competition weekends was played at the concrete courses of Odense Minigolf Club.

Last year’s bronze winner Aalborg Mingolf Klub (Johnny Andersen, Stephanie Dallinger, Kåre Thomsen and Allan Schwab) came in second with 8 points which was 2 points ahead of last year’s silver medallists of Minigolf Clubben Gelsted (John Hansen, Jakob Petersen, Jannick Skov and Lars Rosenquist).
These three teams will without doubt be the sharpest competitors for the Danish championship.

Putter Team Odense was forced to make a substitution two days before the competition as Jan Lyø had to cancel his participation. However, his stand-in, the young Casper Frederiksen, played very convincingly, making a strong impression on his coach; Heino Nielsen, and his team mates, Anders Grønnegaard, Erling Jensen and Mads Nørregaard.

The 3 best players of this weekend’s 5 rounds was Mads Nørregaard, 148, Anders Grønnegaard, 153 and Erling Jensen, 154, all of them from Putter Team Odense.

In the second round Anders Grønnegaard set a fantastic new course record. He played a round of 22 which was 2 strokes better than the 13 years old record played at the European Championships in 1996. Congratulations for Anders Grønnegaard.

The next competition weekend will take place in 3 weeks at the eternit course of Nord-Als Minigolf Klub.
