The British take their sports seriously. Whether it is their football or rugby or cricket, it is all a very significant matter. Some might call them crazy.

It’s part of the British Mini Golf Association, serves as the final major of every season, and is played out in Hastings, which sits on the southern coast of England. Hastings is not a big city, but if you’re a fan of British history, you may recall the Battle of Hastings, in which William II of Normandy defeated King Harold II.
