The road to the 2022 PDGA Champions Cup presented by Bushnell is gaining momentum with the first wave of tickets going on sale, and selling out, this past Thursday night.

In October 2021, the PDGA Operations and Logistics team, event staff, representatives from the pro touring players, along with presenting sponsor Bushnell, met at the International Disc Golf Center (IDGC) in Appling, Georgia. This meeting of the minds culminated in plans to ensure the already world-class W.R. Jackson course is absolutely pristine for 2022’s first major.

  • Paul Ulibarri - Chair, PDGA Pro Touring Players Committee
  • Michael Sizemore - Disc Golf Coordinator, Bushnell Disc

Tickets are still available for the Champions Cup.
