European Open 2019 MPO Lead Card Round 2 Front 9 (Nieminen, Wysocki, McBeth, McMahon)

[@JoosuaPuu]

I can't even imagine what Jesse Nieminen feels starting this round, looking around and going "yup, there's Wysocki, McMahon, McBeast and ....myself. Yep yep."

[@Balanceiskey-nd6el]

He held his own and did a great job!

Thank you spin tv for getting the best in the business for commentary.

[@kekkonenprkl]

Gotta love the Iso Seksikäs commentary

[@byuidan]

If Iso Seksikas (sorry can’t get the hat on the a on this phone) discs are printed there may not be an option outside of buying. Those guys are awesome!

[@backhandok]

We need a "Iso Seksikäs" stamp, like, right now!

[@spoonraker]

A few minor tweaks to the graphics would make this coverage top tier. 1. Always show the player's score. Don't cover it with the "birdie" badge. I want to know that they got a birdie and what affect that had on the score. (side note, do we really need Innova logos on literally every score badge? That's a bit much) 2. The "birdie" graphics were all the wrong colors. Par should be gray, birdie should be green, eagle or better blue, bogey red, etc. 3. Always show the hole distance, not just during the intro 4. OB indicators

[@corey8910]

You are spot on with why this coverage is sub-par. Great summary!

[@aaronreini9555]

Great coverage, great commentary, great play! SpinTV, as you continue working on graphics, it would be helpful to have the player's updated score along with the "Birdie" "Par" etc. graphic. When a hole finishes, it's nice to know exactly where each player is at. Currently, once players start making putts, we don't know how their scores compare until after the drone footage on the following hole. That's really my only critique -- everything else is superb!

[@mscudde2]

I'll second that. Simply amazing coverage!

[@ShardCollector]

That's really the only thing bothering me too! I was also wondering why the drone footage looks garbage in every video (including Jomez). At least the better drones themselves have good cameras, but is it because of the packaging/encoding of the moving image or where does it come from?

[@Oklahomabum]

Spin TV, y’all out here killing it! What a tournament too!

[@q1006662]

Thank you for the excellent coverage and commentary! Side note: red is a counterintuitive colour for birdies. Why not green for birdies and red for bogeys? Use a neutral colour for par.

[@jefemckee]

q1006662 couldn’t agree more. And why cover the scores once they’ve holed-out? And why only show hole distances during the hole previews only?

[@Balanceiskey-nd6el]

Awesome video, watching this in 2024, the crowd looks amazing

[@Chris.Davies]

Thanks, as always, SpinTV!

[@hayesowens]

So, I was thinking at about 22:18, when I saw the basket wobble a bit after Paul hit his short putt - maybe a little base wobble on the basket is effective to prevent spit-outs. Do manufacturers or the folks who install the courses think about that at all? I don't mean a ton, but just a tiny amount of give on the stem of the basket might be a good thing. Or maybe that's really dumb. I dunno.

[@jtdiscgolf3412]

The orange driver Paul is using on hole 7 is a Austin Hannum ESP Force

[@freddan6fly]

Lol: Big Jerm - "That was what Anakin Skywalker was not able to do". @Big Jerm: You actually were there in the galaxy far far away? Big Jerm: Finns don't play forehand. Nieminen: Plays mostly forehand from tee.

[@Yohan-yw2jh]

OMG that crowd! ALOT of them! Me like!

[@JacksonMeyer]

is it just me or.....DO THESE COLORS MAKE NO SENSE: Birdie is best case but is depicted using the color red (usually bad 0 should be used on Bogey +) Par is an okay result but is depicted using the color green (usually a great result - should be used for birdie) Bogey is black - neutral (should be used on par). SPIN TV - Really? What are you guys smoking?

[@ccramer5880]

That sort of color association is cultural, for example in Korean stock exchanges red is associated with gain and blue with loss. Maybe that's not the case here but I find it interesting.

[@markmetzger2503]

I'm so confused with red for birdies, green for par, and black for bodgey. Logic would dictate; Birdie - Green Par - Black Red - Bogey Great coverage though!

[@jjbudinski8486]

[@Gimacol]

rickey way way over to the right compared to where his disc lands at 15:46

It's too bad this course cannot stay there permanently around the year as I live less than a thousand feet from this place. And as a local I can tell you that these holes ARE NOT as short as this lead card makes them look like, quite far from it.
