Paul McBeth is feeling confident. Luke Humphries never let the moment get to him. Chris Dickerson and Cale Leiviska made moves.
Eveliina Salonen remained at the top of the leaderboard in defense of her 2020 title, but the margin was cut in half and several players are within striking distance to chase down the title.
Battling cold and blustery conditions on the Brazos River, McBeth finished in a three-way tie at the top in the MPO division while in FPO, Eveliina Salonen found herself in the same position she was the last time she battled the Beast: on top.

A perfect blend of open shots and tight woods, it's time for the Beast in Waco, Texas.
The second stop of the Disc Golf Pro Tour and 2022 PDGA Elite Series season, the Waco Annual Charity Open has been a staple of the professional tour for quite some time. Its open, yet technical holes along the Brazos River give way to the season's first trip through the tight woods. Then, it's back to the open for what has delivered dramatic finishes throughout the years.

His name on top of a leader board that was changing at a rapid pace, Gannon Buhr stepped up to hole 14, a reachable but tricky 433-foot basket, and chose to lay up his drive.
Paige Pierce, trailing by six strokes entering the third round on Saturday, caught fire down the stretch, finishing with a six-under back nine to close the gap to zero with Catrina Allen entering Sunday’s finale.
