Last winter WMF Technical Committee announced a plan to add a new kind of major tournament in the championship calendar: World Adventure Golf Masters\r\n\r\nhttp://www.minigolfnews.com/index.php?id=771\r\n\r\nThere has been no public information how this plan is going forward (if it is going forward). We have a great new adventure golf course in Finland (I guess City-Golf had some role in planning the layout), and the owner is generally interested in organizing competitions, even international ones:\r\n\r\nwebsite:\r\nhttp://www.pirateadventuregolf.fi/\r\n\r\nplaying notes:\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_stat.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_01.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_02.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_03.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_04.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_05.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_06.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_07.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_08.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_09.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_10.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_11.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_12.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_13.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_14.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_15.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_16.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_17.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_18.xls\r\n\r\nphotos:\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_adv_golf.zip\r\n\r\nmap link:\r\nhttp://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=fi&geocode=&q=Paloj%C3%A4rvenkuja+16+\r\nkouvola&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=41.003738,67.587891&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=\r\nPaloj%C3%A4rvenkuja+16,+47830+Kouvola,+Suomi&ll=61.015725,26.586914&\r\nspn=6.298611,16.896973&z=6 \r\n... or write in http://maps.google.com search: Palojärvenkuja 16, Kouvola\r\n\r\nIn the local news:\r\n http://yle.fi/alueet/kymenlaakso/2010/08/minigolf_ei_ole_pelkka_kesaharrastus_1875311.html

Who from Finland, also someone else than Timo Metsäranta?\r\n\r\nI would expect at least Germany to send 4 players of national team or U23 skill level, they did so to Asian Open 2010 too, and this WAGM is a pet project of Zimmermann who leads DMV.

I was just thinking that I doubt Timo would want to travel there alone.

Did you notice that nobody else than you and me has said anything in this discussion... and the discussion is half a year old now.\r\n\r\nI might go if I have time and money, just to give a fair match to those few who are going there, we will see about it later.

Hi John, you want some more discussion inputs, so here you go: I believe for many nations/national federations it is just too early for such plannings, not speaking about publishing their plans. Which months do nations usually publish their names for national teams - late spring, early summer? I do not really think the WAGM idea deserves this kind of bashing, at least not at the moment. Give it a chance, please.\r\n\r\nEdit: typos

How did they come up with playing it early may ?\r\nMaybe because of full schedule, but playing such thing when the weather is most secure would be best in my opinion.\r\nSecond, if WMF was serious about this, they should play the first tournament in one of the big Minigolf countries, like Germany/Austria/Sweden to get more publicity on it.
