BLOOMINGTON — Adrian Chevalier’s favorite part about disc golfing?

“Watching the disc fly,” he answered.

The Bradley University student was one of 112 amateurs and 14 professional players who competed Sunday at the Bloomington-Normal Open tournament. Players rotated from courses located at P.J. Irving Park and Forrest Park in Bloomington, along with Maxwell Park in Normal.

Joining him on his card was Springfield’s Dick England, who said he enjoys developing his techniques on an individual level.

“You can really take it on yourself to be as good as you want to be,” said England.
