2022 MVP Open at Maple Hill (Sep 22 - Sep 25)

[Jolt]

For us in Europe the DGN times works out fine. . Fpo starts when i get home from work so i watch live as i make dinner and eats. . . then MPO start at 20:30 so i can have if on in the background as i do other things

I know they referred to the weather policy or whatever, so what is it? How far off a lightning causes a delay, and for how long?

Im not saying they ought to be in the eye of a storm but more info would be great

TDs need to suspend play immediately upon dangerous conditions while ensuring that ALL players, staff, and
spectators are aware that play has been suspended so they can seek shelter. TDs should utilize tools such as
lightning detectors and online lightning maps to assess both the onset and passing of lightning conditions with
an eye to the speed of the storm. An approaching fast-moving lightning storm may require that a TD suspend
play before conditions at the course have even begun to deteriorate.
Only after carefully assessing that the danger has passed should a TD consider resuming play. In the case of
lightning, play should not resume until at least 30 minutes after the last strike.

We use a weather app that shows local lightning strikes in addition to visual observation. We do not cut corners on lightning.

UDisc shows Luke Humphries +12 after seven holes. He's bogey/double bogey/triple bogey/par/double bogey/double bogey/double bogey. That's a score I can relate to. :\

 

[Jolt]

Does Paul use the same green putters as he used at Worlds. . i thought he retired the putters after a Worlds win.

Lightning strike on what kind of radius?

Lightning strike on what kind of radius?

Meant to quote the bolded part, i.e. 30min after last strike, how far?

I think he has a monster stack of those green Lunas. He has said in the past that he retires the pair of putters he uses after EVERY tournament. Albeit it was when he was with Innova that he said that, I would imagine that hasn't changed though.

 

[Ryan P.]

How'd the million dollar ace go?

 

[gammaxgoblin]

correct.

I don't know what is recommended, but lightning can travel a long way. 10 to 20 miles is not extraordinary. I believe I've heard of strikes occurring much greater distances, but I'd have to go back and check.

 

[gammaxgoblin]

correct.

but...why?

 

[glassila]

MPO round on Thursday got rained out so they will only play 3 rounds.
FPO got their round in on Thursday so they will play 4 rounds.

 

[txmxer]

but...why?

I believe FPO was barely able to finish due to a couple of weather delays and they knew for sure MPO wasn't going to get through.

Don't dare mention

Spoiler

Newsome's C2 putting

 

[Flick Maniac]

If I was that good C2 putter I would def develop a way more annoying little dance routine each time I hit one

 

[peabody]

So with a full roster teeing off on Sunday and a playoff happens in FPO then a playoff happens in MPO will it finish in the dark?

 

[Jolt]

Feels like it was a long time since we had this cloce of a battle in FPO. . top 10 all within 10 throws

Is there not going to be a cut for FPO? Since they are playing all their rounds you would think so.
