Good morning everyone and welcome to Nokia, Finland. Over the next 5 days, 87 competitors will be challenged by two of the world's greatest courses in route to crowning a world champion. Can Abalina Solin defend her title in her home country or will someone else's dreams come true? This is round one of the PDGA World Championship presented by Dismania. >> I really like the sidearm here. The backhand shot is so much more challenging, especially if the wind starts to pick up.
