For the second-straight year and third time overall, Missy Gannon hoisted the DGPT Championship trophy and the huge check that comes with it after a record-setting day in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The starting stroke advantages are gone and the race to a $35,000 check is on.
Ricky Wysocki and Kristin Tattar, both down a few strokes before play even began at the 2024 Disc Golf Pro Tour Championship presented by Barbasol, erased those starting deficits and both find themselves leading by two stokes with three rounds to go in Charlotte, North Carolina.
On the first card out to kick off the beloved stop in Minnesota, Gannon fired off a 1037-rated opening round — unofficially the highest of her career — to kick start what looks to be a sprint to the finish through the entire event.
The job is certainly not finished in FPO — far from it as Anniken Steen and Ohn Scoggins both turned in another stellar round of disc golf to share the lead heading into Championship Round. Right on their heels in Kristin Tattar, just three strokes back after a scorching day of her own in Houston.
Norway’s Anniken Kristiansen Steen was the first player to hit that mark early Friday to kick off the opening round of the final stop of the Texas swing. Ohn Scoggins would best that score by one stroke not too much later for the solo lead heading into the weekend in Houston.
Anthony Barela was the only player in MPO to hit double digits.
