TEAM GERMANY DO IT AGAIN
Last weekend and hastings adventure golf played host to the 5th world adventure golf masters at the world famous international minigolf stadium the pirate course ,and teams from all over the world turned out ready to take on the world and prove they have what it takes to become world adventure golf masters team champions ,and with the host nations great britain set to unleash 4 teams in to the tournament hoping to banish their disapointment from previous events and topple fierce rivals germany who this year landed in hastings with their strongest team yet ,featuring the quartet of current champion Oleg Klassen, wonder girl sensation Melanie Hammerschmit , peter lichtenstein and team captain and now 3 time champion martin stoeckle AKA superman,this year team germany had a strong swedish team ,4 british teams, and one czech team standing in their way of a fith world adventure golf masters team title , and the Germans started very well indeed and in no mood to give up their title anytime soon ,it was a pretty close affair after day one with germany taking a close lead overnight ,with sweden and great britain pushing and shoving for second place and the czechs sneaking along in last with great britains other teams sitting ahead of the czechs. Day two arrived and team germany started to work through the gears and pedal towards a fith title in 5 years ,with team sweden just managing to keep great britain team one out of second place ,and so it was team germany who held there nerves to collect a well deserved 5th team title with sweden taking the silver medals and great britain the bronze. Also last weekend at the world adventure golf masters the individual title was up for grabs and with current champion oleg klassen keen to keep hold of his title he won in gullsborg sweden last year ,it was going to be tough as the strongest field of players ever seen on these shores which included british number one Michael iron man Smith ,british teen sensations Will donnelly and adam kelly , world number one Filiph Svensson and former champion Martin Super man Stoeckle to name but a few, and as the tournament progressed the 18 top scorers made it through to the super round which ended up being a nail biting affair between british champion michael smith and german captain Martin stoeckle and it was down to the last few holes and only one stroke separated the two with both knowing a slight mistake will let the other man in ,and it was martin who holed a perfect ace at the 16th to put himself in the driving seat with michael needing aces on all of the last three holes to defeat superman ,a task which was almost possible as he narrowly missed an ace on hole 16 ,then got an ace at 17 ,and then on 18 was oh so close to taking superman to a play off after missing an ace chance by a very narrow margin , and so it wasn't to be and superman once again showed his powers of invincibility having gone nearly the whole tournament without dropping a shot, the world threw everything at him and he took every ounce of pressure in his stride ,it was only a single 3 at the 12th in the super round that momentarily broke his invincibility ,but it was still an impressive performance is there anything this man can't do
UNTIL NEXT TIME ITS CONGRATUALATIONS TEAM GERMANY
AND CONGRATUALATIONS TO THE NOW 3 TIME WAGM CHAMPION
THE MAN OF STEEL ,MARTIN STOECKLE
