2016 Pro Worlds

I don't think this is his year.

There was also some mention that the players' deal with Innova included a bonus if they took the top 4 spots...Yeti was only a couple strokes behind Stokely and ended up making it an all-Innova Masters final 9.

What happened to stokelys run in mpo

 

[brutalbrutus]

Mcbeth 2-5-6-2, looks like the start of one of my rounds...

 

[VictorB]

Eagle is making a big time move, even though he's out of contention for the title.

 

[DanJon]

Why does McBeth even throw FH?

 

[unclemercy]

So anytime in the upcoming year at least?

I hadn't heard that but if so I consider the offer an ugly one. Assuming this happened, I understand Innova had no ill intent, but that offer is asking for trouble. Honestly I find it hard to believe.

I cant speak for them, but our team does that too. So I'm assuming that it may have been started by the older companies long ago. Now rest assured, the "bonus" isn't some huge amount of money.

Eagle seems to have trouble with the last 2-3 holes of most rounds, not sure what to make of it, bummer for him though.

Where are they playing tomorrow? A nice wooded course? Jones east is basically wide open and the country club blows. The roped OB stinks. I know why they do it but playing in a nice wooded course is fun to watch

 

[Stevo]

MPO is back to Jones East

 

[Eco81]

Thanks

There was definitely an added bonus if Innova players swept top 3 in Supertour events long ago (late 90's).

How often is that happening now? Stats anyone?

It was almost impossible to see. What made people suspicious was the immediate synchronized call. Followed by a second call on the next throw. Given the low number foot fault calls in general, to have two players call it simultaneously, twice, felt contrived.

I think I saw a conversation once that Stokeley had been foot faulting frequently on field shots, so the others decided to really call him on it if he did it again. When he did, they called it, then a second time and a third. On his fourth shot he foot faulted yet again, but they let it go in order to move along.

Whatever happened, it doesn't seem to be the norm.

Will there be any live video coverage tomorrow besides the Smashboxx stream?

They are the only live coverage, why?

Others are filming for edited video with commentary.

It makes no sense to me and it looks bad to boot. Maslow's need hierarchy puts money rather low as a good motivational tool. I just don't see this having any real impact. From there it just looks stupid, and leads to questions like the one here.

Even more, trying to motivate a group in mass to get this kind of an outcome just doesn't seem workable unless it's a team sport. You can only be responsible for you in a tournament like this. There is no team work unless you cheat. No wonder people think Ken and PB cheated. Dumb IMO.

BTW - just to keep you interested, I'm rootin' for Nikko against your favorite! Good luck tomorrow.

Going live is so much harder than just filming and editing, even though editing sucks. A lot more equipment and money involved too.
