History Made in KC
The 2009 PDGA World Championships added several stories to our disc golf history book this past week.
Kansas City, MO brought the largest competitor field for a World Championship (922), youngest (age 7)/oldest (age 81) competitors to compete in a World Championship, first time brother/sister Open sweep in a World Championship, second time ever for a sudden death playoff in Open in a World Championship, largest Women’s field in a World Championship (100), largest Amateur field in a World Championship (595).
We are honored to announce yet another historic mark made on this year’s Worlds. Two actually. Gabriella Gray, your 2009 Junior Girls < 13 World Champion, broke a World Distance Record while in Kansas City. In the category Girls (10 and younger), she is clocked in at 84.36 m beating former record holder, Rebecca Cox, by 9.21 m. Also making a NEW entry into the record books is Olive Bolander, our oldest competitor mentioned above, sets the mark at 36.72 m in the distance category Women (80 and older). Congratulations to you both!
Do you have what it takes to be a World Record holder? Several records haven’t been broken in quite some time. Will you be the next?
