At its core, the United States Women’s Disc Golf Championship is a celebration of women’s disc golf, a tournament where girls and women from every corner of the planet gather to compete and, most importantly, find community.
It’s going to be a party in Madison, Wisconsin.
A record 320 women across 19 divisions kick off the 24th annual USWDGC on Thursday with a chance to grow the game, meet new friends and compete for a PDGA Major title.
The numbers continue to be staggering and highlight the growth of women playing and competing on the disc golf course.
After watching the registrations for the 2022 United States Women’s Disc Golf Championships roll in, Paige Pierce, Holly Finley and Kona Panis all reflected on how far women's disc golf has come over the past decade.
Those memories are what make this already record-setting USWDGC event even more special.

It’s seven months away, but the 24th edition of the United States Women’s Disc Golf Championship (USWDGC) is taking shape at a rapid pace in Madison, Wisconsin.
On the heels of a record-setting event in 2021, preparations for the PDGA Major are well underway in the Mad City.
Recently, members of the PDGA Event Support Team (EST) and the Operations & Logistics Team visited the site with an in-depth look at the courses as well as the host city. Annually, these teams conduct similar visits for PDGA Majors.
