In the first round, I kept fairly clean and made a late charge to shoot a 1044 rated -14, giving me a 5 shot lead going into the second round. The Hyzlander course is one of my favourites, proving tight gaps and open bomber holes with elevation mixed in. In the second round, I started strong, but couldn&#8217;t pull together the same late round charge, still shooting a 1005 rated -8. <span>Overall, very solid start to the season.&#8221;<\/span><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The Southern Smash &#8211;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">&#8220;The 2nd tour event for the calendar year and South Islands, worth 60 points! 1 round in, I found myself bogey free and shooting a hot 1017 rated -7. This put me at a 4 shot advantage over the field. My 2nd round was a touch lackluster, carding 4 bogeys to shoot a -2, placing me at a 4 shot lead going into the final round. The final round was tense and tight, as I lost 4 shots to Isaac Howard within the first 2 holes, as he started -4 through 4, while I went +2 through 2. I managed to get back in the game, and pull together my first major win. The Golf course and Disc Golf Course combo is always fun, testing out a combination of open holes and some tighter touchy holes. One of my favourite tournaments this year, starting strong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A massive congratulations on your two big wins on behalf of Team RPM, Levi.
