The duo analyzes the challenging hole 11, a par-three that plays 300+ feet uphill, where even minor miscalculations can lead to difficult putts. They discuss Evelina Salonen's impressive drive with her Destroyer disc, while also examining Missy Gannon's strategic approach and Kristen Tattar's headwind putt.
