So The GBO Wind Is Already Putting Paul McBeth To The Test

Yikes!

It looks like Paul McBeth may have just added to the lore of the Glass Blown Open wind.

Check out McBeth trying to can a headwind putt during a practice round on hole 11 at Eagle Disc Golf Course at Olpe Lake, where the Open men’s and women’s fields will be playing Thursday:

Which is more impressive here: the 45 mph headwind, or McBeth’s commitment to keeping his disc dry? Either way, this week is already shaping up to be a fun one out in Kansas. As McBeth would say, #cake.

UPDATE: Simon Lizotte and Eagle McMahon also had a good time out at Olpe today. Be sure to click through the entire Instagram post there — hanging baskets!
