How To Watch The 2020 Ledgestone Insurance Open
Disc Golf Pro Tour set for four-day run in Peoria
PDGA Elite Series play continues this weekend with the seventh stop of the 2020 Disc Golf Pro Tour, Discraft’s Ledgestone Insurance Open presented by GripEq. The competition will take place from August 13-16th with feature and lead card coverage broadcast live on the Disc Golf Network. The coverage will begin at 9:50 a.m. ET for the FPO division and 4:05 PM ET for the MPO division.
Discraft’s Ledgestone Insurance Open takes place across three courses. Due to field size and travel between the courses, it was decided to have the FPO broadcast be in the morning with the MPO broadcast in the afternoon. Currently, the plan is to only make the adjustment for this event. Viewers will be able to watch two separate streams of coverage this weekend starting Thursday at 9:45 a.m. ET.
Post-Production coverage will be provided by JomezPro, CentralCoastDiscGolf, Gatekeeper Media and GK Pro.
