First review from Mr. Tee’s visit to the Czech R First review from Mr. Tee’s visit to the Czech Republic (Czechia) for the 2024 WAGM. We kick off with the hardest course at the facility, Venus. Full review and more photos on the site. Contoured greens and few flat spots near the cup to get the ball to stop. Minigolf balls and patience are a must when you face off this monster of a course. Great court to test your mini golf skills and mental toughness!
