(Yes, you read all of that correctly.)
And he hit it twice, right? They called a timeout as he tried the first one that he made.

My only gripe with this tournament. Start a game on the hour, every hour from 1-8 ET. This isn’t difficult.

I remember DSafe explaining the above before, but it’s still a bad viewing experience.
