Holly Finley and Raven Klein provide analysis and commentary on the players' performances, including Evelina's impressive clubhouse round and Haley King's four-down score through 11 holes. The video highlights the challenges of the 10th hole, a par-3 that plays uphill with a significant gap to hit off the tee. Players must navigate this tricky shot, either by riding the right side hyzer or pushing straight up to avoid "death pods" on the way down. The experts discuss strategies for each approach, including Hokom's backhand shot and Merch's forehand turnover.
