(AP) -- Golfers in North Myrtle Beach are playing around a simulated volcano as the U.S. Pro Minigolf Masters tournament gets under way.
The Sun News of Myrtle Beach reports that 80 golfers from around the world are participating in the tournament that continues through Saturday.
It's being played at Hawaiian Rumble Golf that features a 40-foot tall simulated volcano that erupts every 20 minutes with flames shooting from the top.
Richard Lockner of Sweden is back to defend his title as is last year's runner-up Olivia Prokopva of the Czech Republic. The winner gets $4,000 and a green jacket.
