Carolinians Dominate at US Masters Championships

The city of Charlotte played host to one of the most exciting disc golf tournaments in recent history - the 2015 Tim Selinske US Masters Championships. This year's competition saw a record-breaking number of participants, with over 300 players vying for top honors across nine different divisions. What's more, Carolinians dominated on their home turf, claiming victories in six out of seven divisions where there was multiple winners.

In the Grandmasters division, Stan McDaniel looked like he had it in the bag going into the final round at Bradford Park. However, Jerry Goff and Eric Vandenberg refused to give up, carding impressive rounds that saw them tie for second place with a birdie on Hole 18. It was a heart-stopping finish, but ultimately McDaniel's drive proved to be just close enough to secure his victory.

Meanwhile, Barry Schultz claimed his fifth US Masters title in the Pro division, showcasing incredible skill and consistency throughout the tournament. With a staggering 60 birdies and just three bogeys over 90 holes of golf, Schultz cemented his position as one of disc golf's top players. The win was particularly special for Schultz, who has been competing at this level since he first started playing.

The Carolinians' dominance didn't stop there, with Elaine King taking home the title in the Masters Women's division. A consistent performer throughout her rounds, King never gave her opponents a chance to catch up, eventually securing victory on Hole 11 at Bradford Park.

In addition to the impressive competition on the course, the event also highlighted the generosity and dedication of the staff and volunteers who made it all possible. With hundreds of players in attendance, the organizers ensured that every detail was taken care of, creating a seamless experience for competitors and spectators alike.

As is customary, photos from the weekend are now available to view and download on the PDGA Flickr page, while videos can be found on YouTube courtesy of The Disc Golf Guy. These visual records will undoubtedly serve as inspiration for players looking to follow in the footsteps of this year's champions.
