MICHAEL Smith stormed to victory in the prestigious British Minigolf Open in Margate, Kent.
The former North Oxford junior captain (pictured) finished 29-under par after six rounds, 12 shots ahead of runner-up Johan Ahlander from Sweden.
It saw Smith become the first player to win all three British Minigolf Association’s major events, following on from wins in the British Championships and Castle Golf World Crazy Golf tournaments.
He said: “I played my best ever minigolf and am thrilled to beat such a high quality field on what is, despite the low scoring of the top four players, a very difficult course.”
The British No 1 followed it up with another victory last weekend, at the Planet Hastings Crazy Golf Club Open Championship.
