2022 Las Vegas Challenge Feb 24-27

Too bad Henna didn't perform.uo to her abilities, but I really like what the Europeans bring to FPO. Still cool that was caddying for Evaliina today.

It'd be cool if they could challenge for the top spots in MPO. Hopefully, they get their feet under them as the season gets going.

Does anyone know why there are whiskers 10 feet away from the baskets?

Even though the EU ladies have apparently had some time to get adjusted to being in the States, it's got to be a challenge to pack up your life and go on the road to another country to compete.

UDisc stats don't count any putts from within 3.3m as a made putt. They count them as tap-ins that don't count for your putting statistics. The whiskers aren't necessary for any competitive reason but they're handy to see how close you are.

Must be new for 2022, because I done remember hearing the term bullseye before this weekend

All sorts of movement in MPO... lots of guys charging hard, looking to move up the board today. Could be interesting to see how young Mr. Buhr handles the pressure as the holes wind down.

The term "bullseye" was really created during the short-lived DG World Tour several years back. It was an easy term to remember so some commentators still use it.

When UDisc started doing in-depth statistics, they calculated C1 and C2 putting percentages. This led to the weird cases where some people finished with 100% C1 putting but nothing outside of 10' (old dudes playing bogey golf, laying up to the pin on every hole). UDisc decided a few years ago to start ignoring any putts inside 3.3m, leading to what they now call C1X.

They are playing the final round on the course he struggled with the most, but I'll double down on a top 30 finish. The fact that he made the "cut" has to be a positive for him.

Get rid of that triple on #1 and double on 18 (round 2) and he would in the top 5. Of course you can say that about just anyone's score.

Hmmm I could have nailed it. Not over yet

 

[BogeyNoMore]

Who've thunk Luke Humphries' mustache was holding him back all this time?

On these ball golf courses there should be a max air distance line -- force more rollers.

under pressure!

 

[txmxer]

what does Drew's white triangle patch on the right shoulder mean?

 

[BogeyNoMore]

Mamma Buhr seems to handling the pressure... but I bet she's a wreck inside.


Either way, she's got a lot to be proud of.
The way her son conducted himself, belies his age.

Anyone know what happened to Nathan Queen?

Shoulder soreness 3rd round. He's shutting down and hopes to return for Waco.

 

[txmxer]

Drew throws an incredibly mid. Same in the woods.

 

[BogeyNoMore]

Nice to hear Gibson's comments on Buhr.
Kudos to both of them.

 

[Neil_Rankin]

Hated to watch either player not win at the end. Gannon Buhr is unbelievable but Drew Gibson may be the best thrower of the disc in the world right now. A great kick off to the season.

 

[elmexdela]

Only because the count happened to be 13 (known as "unlucky"), not because OB itself was necessarily unlucky.

damm nice troll job

you got me

Buhr is incredible. I don't enjoy watching him at all, but he is incredible.

Buhr is incredible. I don't enjoy watching him at all, but he is incredible.

His pre-shot routine is.... exhausting to watch. But he putts like a machine, has a pretty complete game, and went toe to to with Gibson when it counted most. A lot of kids his age wouldn't be able to bounce back from that unfortunate OB call, but he drill the death putt, and performed admirably in the playoff.
