Utilizing the well-organized league and tournament system that was embedded within Walkabout Mini Golf VRs Discord Channel, we were able to give an opportunity for people from around the world to compete in again virtual reality in a 24-hour period between February 245th & 25th (or just the 25th if you live in the UK or further east).
Round 1 (J) was held on Journey to the Center of the Earth Easy and Round 2 (A) was on Atlantis Hard
The first week of Season 12 of the Mighty Coconut Walkabout Weekly Tournament paired two courses released in 2023, Journey to the Center of the Earth (Easy) and Atlantis (Hard). Both courses have lots of tricky holes where hole-in-ones are hard to come by and an errant tee shot can put you into bogey territory. Despite all of these challenges, we see a familiar face at the top of the leaderboard. Jorge Rimblas won his 3rd AMA Walkabout event in a row with a combined -35. Jorge tied Matt Roalstad for most hole-in-ones with 6 and tied Mick Cullen for the best score on the Atlantis (hard) course with a -14. Jorge took an uncharacteristic 5 on Atlantis #17 but closed with the challenging ace on #18 to secure the win. Jorge needed that ace because 2022 AMA season winner Mick Cullen was only 2 strokes behind with a -33. Shawn Brown narrowly lands in 3rd with an impressive -22 on the easy course. Matt Roalstad, Tom Loftus and Kyle Courcy all had strong rounds to narrowly put them in the top half of finishers who would receive a single point.
Congrats again to Jorge! He’s the AMA player to beat on Walkabout right now. Details of the event here |
