I'm Steven Bailey, the tournament director, joined again by Luke Safford. Great to be [music] here, Steven. Really looking forward to this round. The course is in great shape.

We got Nathan Queen at 23 down, Connor Rock and Parker Welck [music] at 21 down, and Christopher Robbins at 20 down. But, the chase and third card players not out of the hunt at this point.

Connor Rock putting this one high and wide and coming in right to the right side of the basket. That's great-looking shot. Yeah. Really good spot to be there. Parker Welck.

Yeah, the standards are a little shifted at Van Buren. You It's not abnormal to have 25-mph gusts out here. Didn't quite get to that point, but even throwing a downhill shot with 10 or 15-mph wind can...
