Discussion Trying to remember a couple of PDGA course/events

I have been out of disc golf a couple of years and am finally getting back into the sport, and one thing I have been doing is cataching up on Jomez coverage of this year's tour. While watching one event I was reminded of a course that used to be on the event. I do not remember much about it, but one hole stands out. The main fairway runs along a sidewalk with grass to the left and trees/parking lot to the right and the basket was sitting in an "island" in the middle of the parking lot. Does anyone remember which course this was? I am pretty sure it was not a permanent course and was just set up for the event, but I would like to revisit some of the old events on Jomez and I would prefer not having to look through all the hundreds of videos on their YouTube channel. [FIRST QUESTION SOLVED: USDGC, Hole 13, Winthrop Disc Golf Course, prior to 2022]

Additionally, there was one event where on a single hole there was a quadruple follow flight. Everyone on the card got a follow flight. I believe the tee pad was elevated a bit above the basket. Yeah, this one is a bit of a long shot, but it does not hurt to ask. [SECOND QUESTION SOLVED: 2018 USDGC, Hole 3, Round 2, McBeth, Conrad, Anthon, Melton].

Thank you for your help!

Beaver State Fling maybe? Milo McIver has 2-3 holes with baskets on islands in parking lots during that tournament.

I think it may be the 2018 or 2019 USDGC

First one is hole 13 at USDGC prior to about 2015. The original “888” hole.  It used to run up the skinny isthmus with parking lot to right and OB sidewalk on the left.  From ~2015-2021 the tee moved to the left and had a much larger fairway.  In 2022 the basket moved off the island. No more parking lot shenanigans.

That is the hole I was thinking of! I just found the video of Nikko's albatross from 2019 on that hole. Thank you!
