This Hasn't Happened in 3 Years! | Grip Locked European Open Preview
Trevor and Connor from Grip Locked Foundation's weekly disc golf podcast are excited to discuss their thoughts on the upcoming European Open, a major event that hasn't taken place in three years due to COVID-19. The duo is looking forward to the return of this iconic tournament, which is known for its challenging course at the Beast. Despite being disappointed with the field strength, Trevor acknowledges that the absence of top players will impact his expectations. However, he's thrilled to see the European Open back on track after a long hiatus. Connor agrees that the tournament feels like it's been too long overdue, and the consistent rotation of courses has contributed to its iconic status. The podcast also touches on the unique aspects of the European Open, including its biannual schedule and its association with the Beast course. With Hunter's knowledge and wisdom still being referenced in the discussion, fans can expect valuable insights from the Grip Locked Foundation team as they preview this major event.
