Catrina Allen Clinches Thrilling Win at Throw Pink Championship

In a nail-biting finish to the 2022 Throw Pink Women's Disc Golf Championship, Catrina Allen emerged victorious after a grueling battle against World Champion Kristin Tattar. The Estonian powerhouse had been dominating the Pro Tour all year, but Allen was determined to hold her ground and secure the win.

Going into the final round, Tattar trailed by 7 strokes, but she quickly made up some of that deficit with a birdie putt on the first hole. As the match progressed, Tattar continued to chip away at Allen's lead, narrowing it down to just three strokes by the 11th hole.

However, Allen was not about to let her opponent catch up without a fight. On hole 12, Tattar found herself in a hazard off the tee, and Allen seized the opportunity to make a birdie and extend her lead by two strokes.

The real turning point came on hole 17, when Tattar landed safely on an island green, putting pressure on Allen to respond. However, Allen's forehand tee shot clipped some branches and fell short of the haybales. But she refused to give up, expertly navigating a drop zone and landing on the island with ease.

From there, it was a matter of nerves as Tattar's second shot on 18 found its way into another hazard, all but securing Allen's victory. The crowd erupted in applause as Allen celebrated her hard-fought win, ending a four-month drought without a championship title.

"It feels amazing to be back on top," Allen exclaimed after the match. "It's been a minute since I've had a big win, so it feels great." With this thrilling victory under her belt, Allen has proven that she remains one of the most formidable players in the sport.
