Putt Power! Fun Miniature Golf at Singapore Sports Hub
25 October 2018 - 30 June 2019

Miniature golf, also known as mini golf, crazy golf, or putt-putt, consist of a series of 9 or 18 holes – similar to its parent sport but is largely characterised by its short length from tee to cup. This mini version also uses artificial putting surfaces such as carpet, Astroturf and concrete laid out geometrically and features artificial obstacles such as tunnels, tubes, ramps, structures and moving obstacles such as windmills.

The miniature golf created for this exhibition was inspired by the seven venues of the Singapore Sports Hub and showcases the essence of what each venue entails. Come down and learn more amazing facts about miniature golf today!
