2021 Kuopio | FPO RD2, B9 LEAD | Salonen, Blomroos, Karppinen, Eskelinen | ENGLISH COMMENTARY
Watch as the prodigy disc pro tour makes its fourth stop in stunning Kuopio, Finland. Join commentator Mitch Phillips and his friend Hayden Ricard as they guide you through the back nine holes of this beautiful course. The front end is relatively clean, but things take a turn for the worse at hole seven, where Evelina suffers a setback, while Henna takes charge with a strong showing. As they tackle the final few holes, Hayden and Mitch discuss strategies for navigating the technical shots that lie ahead, including the par three 351 feet downhill. They break down the pros and cons of different approaches, from forehand throws over the edge towards the out-of-bounds (OB) to laying up just inside circle one. With its picturesque backdrop of a river and surrounding landscape, Kuopio provides an idyllic setting for these top players to showcase their skills.
