Over US$135,000 was awarded during the three-day event to 74 of the world’s finest players of Incredible Technologies’ long-time favourite video golf game.

Former 2017 champion and betting odds favourite Mark Stenmark of Houston, Texas, regained his title.

Most of the contenders qualified for the championship through online play events found on commercial Golden Tee machines in the spring. Two additional spots were awarded during a special “closest to the pin” match on the first day of the event.

Stenmark reclaimed his previously-held crown after a sudden death round.
