Richard's Devilish Mini-Golf (Posted on 2005-01-06) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Five professional golfers (including Fiona) opted to wind down from a big match with a relaxing game of miniature golf at Richard’s Devilish Mini-Golf. They discovered, however, that mini-golf wasn't as easy as it looks. Each player scored extremely high on a different hole of the course, and eventually everybody was fuming about their loss and gave up. Using the clues below, can you find out each golfer's full name (one surname is Billings) and the hole he or she screwed up entirely?

1. George, Evans, and the one who blew it on the ball-eating Clown-Face all managed to control themselves after completing their worst hole and were able to return their putters intact.

2. Isaac’s bad luck came at the Stoplight, where the ball got caught inside, just out of reach of his club.

3. George and Hannah both scored quadruple bogies on their worst holes.

4. Ms. Derby and the man who screwed up on the Loop-de-Loop snapped their putters on nearby trees after their worst holes.

5. The one surnamed Chang wasn’t the one who hit a water hazard on the Viking Ship or the one who tallied a triple bogie on the Windmill.

6. Jacob Ambrose hit his ball with too much force on his worst hole, and took several strokes to get it out of the knee-deep sand trap and back onto the green.

If anybody wants to see my Excel file, email me at cdhanger@att.net and I'll send it to you when I get the chance (I'm kind of a busy person but I should get back to you within a week of receiving the email).
