In the context of DGPT Europe Copenhagen Open, I would have liked you to talk more about the merging of European pro tour with DGPT, and its impact on visibility and growth of disc golf as a professional sport. I'd have liked you to review quality of the competition and and presentation of Copenhagen open, the atmosphere, camera work, commentary, etc. Because that matters when you try to grow the sport. You spent 15 minutes discussing whether the 18th hole in Copenhagen should be par 6 or not instead. It's not a good look to throw shade on European events when the sport is making good progress there; you talk like Jesse Nieminen didn't just beat the #3 in DGPT world standings. Props for acknowledging Eveliina Salonen and Kaidi Allsalu's exciting duel. More like that please and less negativity.

@AegonIV Месяц назад

48 players 1000+ rated in copenhagen. 31 in LV. Historically pretty insane ratings in LV. And the endless segment of a moot par 6 that was requested by fpo players. Gonna be insufferable listening next year for anything worlds related..

@Rutabagas Месяц назад

The argument about the par 6 completely ignores that actual Copenhagen Open officials have stated the decision to keep the hole a par 6 for the FPO field was based on FEEDBACK FROM THE PLAYERS. Seems kind of unfair to go on and on about how the decision was lazy without knowing this.

@Ivypoison23 Месяц назад

Yup it was deliberately stated they were going to move it to a shorter teepad but the women liked the hole how it was so they just played it as a par 6

@hunterbruce3877 Месяц назад

@kingchuckfinley Месяц назад

@@strappstar10 the first thing I saw when I opened Reddit (the website is dog water full of insufferable people, but I need the fire to start the day) when the event started was the statement about the players wanting the hole to be a par 6. Literally the first thing, so they don’t even do that amount of research. They could hire someone to just do research, but I think the bad takes is the engagement they’re looking for.

@MrHattmannnen Месяц назад

Really dissapointed that you huys have to talk down the European players and events. It was two incredible wins and very entertaining to watch there can be multiple great events at once both have real winners with real struggles to overcome

@kendalljamesmusic Месяц назад

I found the “Copen” to be very entertaining. Not only is the course a technical challenge, but it is beautiful. The crowds were huge, excited, yet polite, and the commentary was charming, and a refreshing contrast to much of the US coverage, with a very positive, upbeat vibe. FPO was really dramatic down the stretch on the final round, and MPO was really fun to watch, with technical rollers and some fantastic putting- not to mention Uli making a solid run at it! I can’t understand not enjoying the FPO game, or an MPO that is a bit shorter. Sure, I love watching young guns hucking 600’ but there is so much more beauty to be found in the game.

@rileybruce6772 Месяц назад

The only complaint about the tournament is the fact that American players decided not to travel to join the field, everything else was incredibly run and an amazing event, disc golf needs to push itself into being a world wide sport and criticism like this isn't helping. Critique the athletes not taking the opportunity to travel and play

@ryry562000 Месяц назад

It just didn’t make sense for the Americans to travel that far for 1 tournament and then not having the time they need to get back for practicing for the next tournament. In order for them to get more Americans they should have say two tournaments in Europe and no big ones in the states and do that a couple different times. Just like with the European Open having a few tournaments before and after

@Gabbe-89 Месяц назад

I really like the podcast and everything about foundation dg, but this was kinda sad how they laugh at european discgolf. In my opinion it was a very professional event with much spectator. Events like this helps to grow the sports, and good players from Europe who can’t afford to travel to the US can get points and screentime also. But other than that, good episode and keep up the good work!

@eudyptes5046 Месяц назад

I never saw so many spectators in a US event, except worlds.

@Raiaramis24 Месяц назад

It is not events fault, that the field is not strong enough. Everybody made their decision and who went and won good places got good points. I would say, if top20 in mpo travels, then doesnt matter, where turnament is field wise as European top is the same level as US21-.... in MPO and in FPO the field is same if TOP10 would travel. If we dont have at least 1/3 of a elite series in Europe in few years we make broke half again, because it is unfair to put all the travel to europeans.

@johanhulten8155 Месяц назад

Placing events with prestigue and bigger purses in other places than the US is the best way to grow the sport. It will motivate more younglings to go pro when they see that you can make a living out if it in Europe as well. At the moment DGPT is the top organization that actually drives growth and I love it. But what can you do as a media company? You either invest your focus, expand your knowledge and get on the band wagon early. Or you can try to ridicule it and hope that it will go away on it's own.

@ztsb_koneko Месяц назад

Bingo. As it has been, you can't earn enough in EU to tour here (if there was a tour) and there isn't really a unified scene, no path of progression for players to challenge themselves with tougher competition. For a European player the only real step forward is US, but that's a huge leap. A third party is exactly what's needed to organize and fund the sport here, so that our players can get better naturally before hitting the US, then further drive the competition over there, and eventually offer more great opportunities for US players over in Europe as well. It's all investment in the sport, funneling all of the money into US be terribly short-sighted... You can even see proof of how well this funding boost had paid off in the FPO, people don't realize how much their level of play has skyrocketed over the years.

@caelym Месяц назад

MDG media is great. I enjoyed their coverage of the NZ tour.

@kingchuckfinley Месяц назад

It was very good, and I was particularly happy to even get coverage from there. Really cool events

@pallew Месяц назад

What a sad take guys, I wish the DGPT focuses more on Europe in the future. We need to get a big European swing each season. Like 1 month and only have European events during that time. US disc golf is clearly not the future. If the entire field was here in Copenhagen and the event didn't happen during one of the biggest sporting events in Copenhagen, the crowd would have been double, easy. At the exact time the lead card went off, the two biggest clubs in Denmark, both are in Copenhagen, played each other. Just bad luck, but 100% missed more spectators because of it. And yet, still an awesome crowd, with basically only euro players. You guys are dividing disc golf with these kind of takes IMO. US disc golf is stagnated, even going backwards it seems, in terms of spectators

americans complaining about the europe part of this years tour, what else is new. the us pros not bothering is their loss, if they wanted the points they should've gone, the world of disc golf is expanding and americans can either accept it or they can lose alot of points to europeans competing in the europe part of the tour.

@isakheijbel7389 Месяц назад

Such an immature way of covering the happenings at Copenhagen open... Real sad! Talk about the good stuff so we can have a stronger field next time, because the course and event was real entertaining. No need to make fun of the win...

@PeteEH Месяц назад

There's amateur and college championships listed as majors, and the first european event is the one where the complaining of event status begins. I thought Brodie was the heart of euro hate in foundation... Pre season everyone is for growing the sport world wide, but just don't take anything away from the us. Besides, if the us events had a hundred more europeans touring every year, the copenhagen field would feel stronger because of everyone knowing the players...

Legit vs "non legit" wins is an asinine discussion. The governing body of the sport sanctioned the event as an Elite event, Jesse won, end of discussion.

@ARTisGONE Месяц назад

I hope Europe becomes the main Pro Tour in the next five years! As a spectator, it's just better in almost all aspects: travel, courses, prices, people, and food. If their MPO level of play rises as their FPO, compared to the US, this will make the transition much more valid.

@johanhulten8155 Месяц назад

I hope that we get a true world tour in the next ten years.

@MattiasJak Месяц назад

Happy to see you getting criticism in the comments on your europe-take. It is growing the sport, if pros want to travel to get points they can, like Uli did. It is also a way for europeans to stay competitive while beeing able to see their own home and culture between stops. Europe stops being pro tour relevant is a great way to spread the sport and you come off as elitist, entitled pricks in this one. 'Murica, fuck yeah...

Why do you keep saying that LVC had a stronger field than Copenhagen Open? You never provided any proof to this. To prove the opposite, Copenhagen open had 48 players over 1000-rated, whereas LVC only 31. I don't think it's fair to call it based solely on the presence of a couple top pros, when there's plenty of young talent in Europe capable of shooting 1040-1050 golf over three rounds.

I dont agree with what Cole did, but why arent we talking about how unacceptable it is to wait at a tee for 45mins? This channel often complains about the length of time it takes for a tournament. If players are waiting 45mins because of a playoff thats terrible planning, and people should be upset at the DGPT too. Id be furious if i paid to play and then had to sit for 45mins getting completely out of my tournament mindset because the DGPT didnt plan in any buffer time in case the new playoff structure they chose happened.
