Playing mini golf in the dead of summer, it’s bound to be hot at some point. And last week in Southern Ocean County, it was, even on Long Beach Island. But add to the mix a pair of challengers who had played against me last season and lost, that just raises the temperature a degree or two.

No doubt, Wilson Engel was bringing the heat from Texas on July 28 – he wanted redemption, not just from coming up short against me on “Holey Moley” Season 3 but also after dropping a “Can You Beat Biggy?”
