good afternoon and welcome to the
opening round of the 2024 PDGA Champions
Cup presented by Bush
now we’re at Northwood Park in Morton
[Music]
Illinois doesn’t get much better than
that for Chris Dickerson
what a start for
Dickerson does oh right with it though I
mean he he’s got himself a a manageable
putt this is just perfect position from
Dickerson and a fantastic upshot he’s
making his intentions clear early this
looks like a putter from Bella pretty
incredible
[Applause]
[Music]
wow very
fortunate my
goodness catching up with Joel Freeman
on the
tf16 the downhill very attackable par
three Joel’s got it figured out at least
here in round one maybe just a little
lack ofical didn’t really pop it through
that Gap but what a pop putt there from
Isaac Robinson had it just has gone
totally normal to
plan heberg will have a birdie look from
there solid shot from Dickerson into
Circle
one Speaking of four we have Nicholas
anela on
four see if Isaac can judge this well
[Music]
very Isaac shot on a shot looking that
good this looks good can it hit the wall
doesn’t need it nice shot there by
Ricky a heart of the chains for
mcbath on the lead card maybe chase
looking pretty good at the moment we
jump over to Grady Shu on the
seventh this is a par look from Circle
two come on more like Circle shoe Grady
cans
it so I think the drop zone is right
there at the Red Stake I’m I’m not
exactly sure why Paul preferred the spot
he was in but no harm
done wow oh yeah I like
it James yeah James Conrad sitting at
three
under boogy free trying to get a share
of the lead he can do so with a birdie
here count it James Conrad great start
here he’s four under through eight
looking good so far he is bogey
free wow that was a lot of
foliage what a shot
God similar to this
one little tighter Gap though
honestly antila is going to come up left
of the pin but still have a look that is
a beautiful shot slight turnover let it
let the disc do all the work
here I love it
yeah oh I’m barely getting over The Edge
MC Beth converts from Circle
two
antila wow only needs a mid-range what a
drive Yaki on nine this group is just
shredding here on this
hole Dickerson buries it it is a new
tead so I’ve not ever personally played
the tea that they’re playing this year
but I think it’s just farther back I
think is is the big difference there
yeah nice shot by Paul what a front nine
by MC
Beth wow nice low line from yakub for
Dickerson seeing off on 11 see if he can
work this one from oh yeah left to right
wow and he’s going to do that it’s going
to be at circle’s
Edge seems like a nice little mid-range
shot for MC Beth just missing that
inside line he’s got to miss that last
one he does perfect perfect
shot perfect call by you there Doss well
I mean I’m no physics guy Terry but I
know you are so I appreciate you kind of
backing me up on that oh seod off the
top another one off the top of the
basket that seems to be his spot guys
wow doesn’t matter if it’s a drive or a
putt a CBE off the top of the pin and
he’s got he’s got the payoff that it
stayed in bounds and he’s going to have
a chance to make birdie but so close to
a hole in
one wow we saw the drive by Dickerson
now can he convert for
birdie this will give him a share of the
lead at four under and he’s got ited
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
been playing pretty
well casy
white Casey birdie to go to Five under
so at the moment he is the solo leader
he has that to extend his lead to two
shots can he take a twoos shot lead over
the field he gets it in Casey white the
birdie on
16 now Chris Dickerson up ahead on whole
13 throwing his second shot he’s got to
clear the water drag this from left to
right then you want it to come in nice
and flat so you’re going to stay near
the basket and that’s exactly what he’s
done I’m trying to be inside the circle
versus being so confident from Circle
two that we’re seeing some of these
mistakes here’s Bella really needs a
good one here and he’s done it nice shot
I think you know you’re you’re in the
mix after day one that’s all you can ask
for Wow speaking of in the
mix Ricky Waki Out of the Woods for
birdie
incredible I don’t know Rick’s got that
fresh cut I think he’s looking for the
major to go along with it ready for his
pictures afterwards here’s Casey white
this is for Terry’s minus 7
we’re sharing this Casey we’re sharing
this my buddy you like his odds you and
me bro this is for both of us Casey look
at Calvin
govin
heberg onto the proper side of the
Fairway being over there the right it’s
a little more
open I don’t think this is far enough to
make the corner but it’s a yeah it is
wow yeah this drive is just huge from
Anthony
Bella needs flip getting it I love it I
love this oh no way I love
this eagle look man to go birdie eagle
on those two
holes Sullivan Tipton Sully with the
droping from way deep that’s a way to
close out your round I mean I’ll tell
you what Terry if a good haircut wins
tournaments that solivan tipped him he’s
not afraid to show it what a
shot as I called it seven under the
Oracle Terry the Oracle what a round by
Casey with two bokis yeah so good nine
birdies on his card today it would
almost be shocking if he was not the
leader heading into round two BC bath
for bogy yeah he’d love to join that
throwin party from the card in front of
him could do it oh and off the chains
mcbath so close maybe gave it getting a
little bit of a better spot that we
initially saw nice PT from
[Applause]
James this looks really good can it slow
down wow just inches below the
pin this is almost going too
straight off to the right but birdie
territory for sure just let the disc do
the work turning right it’s a little
wide you can see the gravity pulling it
left oh but get a good final kick anela
looking for the birdie
count it man to think he took a double
bogey back on
12 yeah
Chris Chris to five
under speaking of
Ana
wow very Fort basket off the top I was
going to basket hunting again oh my
goodness the last two and this I he
nearly hit the initial
tree I mean he almost hit the first big
tree barely misses it and almost gets a
hole in
one and somehow almost also goes out of
bounds but stays in is it just due to
the how steep the hillside is right
there it’s the hillside it’s the water
it’s all those things so it’s not a
penalty but it’ll play like one
wow great
putt Dickerson will move to six
under and he cans it what a pot from
Anthony Barella the birdie on
16 the level of
confidence that
is currently in this man’s body is is
next to nobody on tour
know earlier today we saw Holland Hanley
taking a provisional from the top of the
bridge what a
shot his finish and Heiser back at the
end and MC Beth just deep of the pin
trying to recover from the challenges
he’s had over the last few
holes and we’ve seen Kelvin heberg doing
some work over the the last few holes
he’s got four in a row look how far up
here he is in
two and that’s his third heimberg to
finish with five birdies in a row
awesome talk about a way to turn around
what he’s doing out here today I love
seeing players run out of gas and then
have to dig deep get resourceful and
then find some sort of energy and Spark
to salvage the one under or two under
car round that actually ends up being
pretty good you just see so much uh
heroics out here one that he’s going to
want back for
sure and MC Beth will move to two under
with the birdie really good bounce back
by Paul as well over the last two holes
and congrats to Casey white for the lead
here today with that seven under
couldn’t wipe that smile off his face
that’s for sure and that was before he
knew what the rest of the scores were uh
to close things out but any any
takeaways that you heard from him there
second
it’s hard not to root for Casey white
he’s a positive guy he’s just having fun
out there and I think he’s got a great
attitude so it’s going to be a long road
for him to try to hold on to this thing
he’s got you know every shark in the
world circling him but um I wish him the
best and I think it’s going to be a
great day for him
tomorrow hey everybody Nate Doss here

  1. Dickerson throwing some of the most beautiful shots I've seen in quite some time

  2. What was that pink disc that McBeth threw (that they got sorta close up to but I couldn't read it) on the hyzer that flattened out at the pin

  3. Dickerson’s wife never looks happy when I see her on these. Then I realized she’s probably pissed at Chris for always using one of their bath towels on the course. 😂😂😂😂

  4. I wish we could have Nate Sexton both commentating and playing the tournament at the same time

  5. Rooting for Anttila in this one, would love to see him win again this year and make a run for tying Barelas 3 wins going forward. Would love to see some vintage Paul come back and grab it from behind as well. Im not a Casey White hater, but even after the hot round I'm not fully convinced that he can actually hold on, so much left to play.

  6. Criminal that they didn't show a Casey White shot " current leader " until more than half way through this coverage 😢
