DGPT: 2021 Play It Again Sports Jonesboro Open Apr 16-18

Concerning putting stats: This is the first time I've seen the Jonesboro course, but it seems like it had a ton of really tough greens. A lot of elevation puts. I wonder if this attributed to some putting struggles for certain players.

*patiently waits for someone to start the "Has Paul peaked?" thread.

I'm no McFanboi, but... I respect his approach to the game and his mental toughness. Could be interesting to see how this narrative looks come June-July.

opcorn:

Yes.

I don't understand this at all, why is Paul practicing with Magnets?

Here is a potential clue, in a article about the recent history of Discraft:

McBeth's first exposure to Discraft came at Junior Worlds in 2005, a tournament sponsored by Discraft. There, he picked up a Buzzz for the first time. It was the only Discraft disc he threw besides "maybe Magnets. I think I putted with Magnets, because Steve Rico putted with Magnets."

Not sure if that's actually meaningful or not, but going back to something familiar from long ago is a pretty common thing to do when you aren't feeling comfortable with where you are at.

Respect for the consistency Ricky showed on this one.

Watching on Jomez--for the first time I muted the commentators. Watching the three rounds in a row...the clutter of the background noise from mic'd up players and the very aggressive "bro time" between the two commentators just got really grating. It was round 3, probably hole 2 with the vampiric "these awesome pros steal other people's distance" extended nonsense goof that did it.

Keep it classy guys. Usually the commentary is adding a lot to the round by explaining the holes and filling out what you see the disc doing. This time, however, was no good.
