and welcome back to MDG [music] Media's coverage of the German Nationals. We are moving day round three [music] back nine action. This tournament is presented and sponsored by MVP disc sports. I'm Simon Lazot and I'm here with Chris. Hey guys, local club [music] legend black ace disc golf doing workout here. Players doing work out here, too. >> Happy happy to host [music] this tournament. >> Oh, yeah.
