Watch the 2024 Maricopa Open Round 2 highlights from the Hidden Valley temp course in Arizona. Anthony Bella takes the lead after a strong first round, followed closely by Connor Rock and Levi Hancock. Nick Newton rounds out the field with his unique reading of the wind. The video showcases the challenges of playing in gusty conditions, as the wind significantly impacts players' scores. Anthony Bella's impressive 15-under score sets the bar high, but it remains to be seen if others can match his performance. Connor Rock, a professional from Lakeside, Arizona, and Levi Hancock, out of Utah, put up strong fights, with both within striking distance of the lead. The video features footage of each player navigating the course, including shots at 300 ft hole number one with its Mando, and the obstacles posed by OBs and gusty winds.
