DeLaveaga. It’s either your favorite course or your least favorite course, depending on the day. But more importantly, it is home to the one and only “Steady” Ed Memorial Masters Cup, a historical event on one of the most challenging courses in the world. It’s not often that shooting even par earns you a 1002-rated round, but it happens here year after year.

In the ball golf and disc golf world, Saturday is often referred to as “moving day”. In any Friday-Saturday-Sunday event, the way you play on Saturday often plays the biggest role in determining, to at least some degree, where you will end up overall at the end of the day on Sunday. Whether you play well and move up the ranks, or play terribly and move down, it will likely impact the way you carry yourself for the final round(s) both mentally and physically.
