Hello and welcome to the final nine of the 2026 MVP Big Easy Open presented by Flight Factory. We're in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana at Park Deami. I'm Erikica Stingcom. >> I'm Madison Walker. We're your two hotkeys. Honk barely close going into the back nine. Anything can happen uh amongst these cypress trees and but as we turn the corner the headwind has picked up and we are having to deal with that all the way back. We didn't have that direction of wind in the practice round. So it is a new challenge and on these holes it is definitely a challenge. Uh Jessica Girthy screaming up the leaderboard at five down throwing some great shots in the wind and everyone else just kind of holding on for dear life. Missy Ganon within three strokes, the closest to being able to really attack, but Holland looking pretty in control overall. Missing a few putts, a few mistakes, but she's got strokes to play with. Hole 10, a par three. I think one of the easiest out here, especially if you have the forehand at 293. Backhand can absolutely work. There's an outside gap, there's an inside gap. There's a bit of a high ceiling you got to be careful with. Um, I think most common uh mistake or the best mistake to make is just pushing a little too straight as in left of the pin. You see a lot of circle two putts from over there. >> Holland taking the inside route and absolutely basing it. >> It was strange today because Oh, we get a little follow flight. You could feel a not much wind at the teapad, although you could hear it. But as you got right here, as soon as you crested that corner tree, there was a screaming right to left wind. That really played with the disc if you didn't already have it on the angle you want. Holland does that really well. >> Nice that Holland doesn't have to putt. Uh cuz that you could really feel it on the putting green. Like you said, >> that was her Zone. Missy catching the middle tree, kicking pretty deep, right? >> And you can see Missy kind of like giving a little shrug. I had the same problem where it looks like your disc is going to flip up and then the wind...
