The 2022 PDGA Champions Cup presented by Bushnell is underway at the Georgia course, where top players are vying for the title in the second round of the back nine. Mitchell Phillips and Nathan Queen break down the front nine, noting the impressive birdies from their card, with only one bogey recorded. Ricky, Matt Bell, and Marley all make moves to take the lead, while Austin Hannum pushes for a course record. The duo discusses the key holes, including the 606-foot par four on hole 10, where an aggressive backhand shot is recommended to navigate through the trees. As they analyze the front nine, Phillips and Queen also highlight Ricky's impressive shot-making skills, Matt Bell's tricky stance on the left side of the fairway, and Andrew Marwade's controlled approach shot. Calvin's forehand roller attempt at hole 10 takes an unexpected turn into a rough spot, showcasing the challenging conditions on this course.
