2019 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championships Aug 12-17

[Ryan P.]

Udisc shows as many pars as bogies. 42% c1x, 0% c2. The three "16 footers" she made were on 1, 17, 18.

I wasn't there, but judging by the view of the camera, the putting distances on udisc are incorrect. For instance, it said she made a 66 foot putt on hole 16. The video isn't up, but I am pretty sure she was a bit outside circle one, so that'd be a 35-45 footer.

I know that udisc estimates some putts, but I thought anything under 10ft was listed as a 5ft putt. But even with that, her other made putts were 16, 66, 16, 16, 66. That's a statistically improbable grouping of numbers. It's like getting a full house in a deck of cards that goes up to 66.

with that said, no disrespect to udisc. They're doing an amazing job.

Now I get to watch UDisc like the rest of the world.

yeah the page isn't loading....

 

[Jolt]

Things not looking to good for Eagle, has he given up already?

 

[Streets]

Ugh so I actually have to give a DD video a view to watch Barry, Dickerson and Earhart play? :wall:

EDIT: And Risley is on that card too...good grief.

I wonder if he will Rage-Sell his bag at the end of this tourney too opcorn:

 

[DiscFifty]

Yeah, not being able to cover Northwood sucks. And I honestly think that we may have been at 75% quality of a standard live broadcast there.

Have you ever considered just covering the last 5-6 holes? There's plenty of action that typically unfolds in those holes and it would still be worthy of a live show imop.

Udisc doesn't allow for exact distances for any C1 or C2 putts. There's essentially three distances in each circle (5, 16, 27 and 38, 49, 60). I'm not sure how or why it would display 66 feet at all. The lowest distance you can manually enter is 70. Unless the tournament app has a different UI than the regular app, but it doesn't appear that way.

Love to watch the Eagle fly, but his mental game seems to be such a roller coaster. He's not having a good round...at all.

 

[AHagglund]

Eagle seems to lose a lot of his effectiveness on courses without a lot of airspace. If he can't throw "power BH Hyzer, power FH hyzer, putt", he isn't nearly as dangerous as his rating would otherwise indicate.

I don't see him coming back at this tournament, though USDGC will be a completely different story.

Great to know. Thanks

I just wanted the Round 1 recap video the PDGA put out. Well done. But how did they afford to pay Christian Bale to do the commentary in his Batman voice?

Emerson Keith is the new Paul McBeth

A par 5 with only 2 birdies all day?? #12 must be a beast!!

Conrad's is filmed too. Can't wait to see that.

The other one was yesterday in pool B.

Hole 12 is a beast. Might be one of the toughest holes the pro's play all year. It's a very well designed hole.

1000ft+ snakes in the woods tend to be a bit rough on the scorecard...
