Welcome to moving day at the 2025 PDGA Junior World Championships presented by Dynamic Disc. It is day four of this five round PDGA major. We are shifting back to Jones West. Big thank you to our partners, Infinite Disc, for making this coverage possible. It's been a fun week already, comrade. We've seen kind of back and forth shifting between the lead and the chase car for the most part, and we've got some more shuffling to do today. >> Yeah, we've seen Virginia stay up top with her lead, but everyone chasing her and like you said, a lot of switch switching from chase card to lead card. Let's see who we have on a lead card today. Starting out, I just mentioned her name, Virginia Pokinhorn. She is been in the lead since the first round and trying to maintain that lead to get the championship. A feature on the card every day has been Shelby Cohen. Cowen. Cowan. Yeah. He's been hanging in there trying to claim her a major victory. >> Yeah. already a major champion and deputy who we've had on the card before and on the channel before a sizzling hot round during round three to make her way back onto the lead card. And joining her to Mocha Aronami who we saw during round one all the way from Tokyo, Japan making an appearance once again. We're going to kick things off here on hole one par 38 ft. You see the OB path there and then the OB water on the lefth hand side throwing over this ridge rightway here and then having a quick drop off this green though surrounded by a couple of trees with some low ceiling and then you see a little bit of danger just behind the basket there. So you want to check up your speed going back into that bunker that they're not going to cost you an OB stroke but it may very well cost you a natural stroke. Anytime we're playing in Kansas, we're thinking about the wind here. Uh you really don't feel it on the T- box here, but when I went to the edge there, you can see the shrubbery blowing gently right to left, and it is not going to allow these disc to turn over and go towards the pin. This time, luckily, Virginia doesn't end up...
