It's the back nine of round number one. Grant Zelner and Nathan Queen on the mics and an exciting weekend of disc golf already developing. Nathan, indeed it is. You see here we had quite a variety of different scorecards on this front nine. Tanner Young able to keep it clean. Three down. Ryan Mann the same amount of birdies but started with that bogey. other two on the card looking to clean it up a bit as we see you've got a tight race for the leaderboard right now. We move to the back nine where there are some scoring opportunities. Starting here with the 10th, a 507 ft uphill par4. This hole played as the easiest in relation to par. And this is actually the first hole on the course today to average under par. Whole front nine overpar. Ryan leaks off a little bit early there, but should still have an opportunity to approach the basket. This is Tanner Young out of Kentucky. way up there. Should have a pretty easy up and down. Showing you why this is the easiest hole on the course. Riven Tanner Airborne. Riven Tanner also from Kentucky. In fact, both Tanner Young and Riven Tanner from the same Berg. Yeah. and him. We've seen him on the front nine throwing the hardest or the fastest it seems like so far. And he quickly gets into position. Gavin turns it over a little bit too much. Uh but looks like he should stay in a position to get up and down for birdie. Beautiful. Yeah. And it's got to feel funny. Um, I haven't played this particular hole. The basket we play is way up there behind it, tucked into the wood line up there. And, uh, it's got to feel funny after playing all those difficult holes on the front. All of a sudden, you've got a must get birdie. That's just a different type of feel from the rest of Tobagen. As you see, Riven maybe trying to give that eagle look. Tanner Young able to be very bold there with the uphill back stop behind the basket. And that is not a par that feels good on this...
