Catrina Allen Dominates 'Moving Day' at Steady Ed Memorial Masters Cup

Saturday's round of play at the 2014 Steady Ed Memorial Masters Cup proved to be a turning point for many players in the Open division. Simon Lizotte shot the best round so far, finishing at 11 under par and unofficially rated at 1079. Despite knowing he was outplayed by 26 other players on Friday, Lizotte managed to climb from fifth place to third overall, tying with Ricky Wysocki.

However, it's not just in the Open division that exciting storylines emerged. In the women's competition, Catrina Allen and Val Jenkins were initially neck-and-neck for the lead at the start of the round. Paige Pierce was hot on their heels, just three strokes behind in third place. But as the day unfolded, Allen proved to be unstoppable.

With a steady hand and precise throwing skills, Catrina slowly but surely took control of the round, opening up a significant gap between herself and her competitors. By completing the first eight holes, she had already taken the lead from Val Jenkins and expanded her advantage over Paige Pierce to six strokes.

Allen's dominance didn't falter throughout the day. She remained bogey-free after 18 holes and even pulled off an incredible recovery on hole 13, also known as the "I-5". With what seemed like no options for a safe approach shot, she executed a miraculous spike hyzer and sank a 40-foot putt.

The final act of Allen's impressive performance came on the infamous "Top of the World" hole. She unleashed an awe-inspiring midrange drive that slammed into the ground just outside the circle, skipped gently, and settled 15 feet from the basket. After sinking her birdie putt, she finished with a score of three under par, unofficially rated at an astonishing 1025.

In total, only 15 players managed to beat Allen's round, but seven of those men were beaten by just one stroke. Val Jenkins also showcased impressive skills, parking the final hole with a flat hyzer and sinking her putt from just 20 feet out.

The drama will continue tomorrow in the final round of the Steady Ed Memorial Masters Cup. With DeLaveaga Disc Golf Course known for its unpredictable nature, it's anyone's game – and we'll be live on PDGALive.com to bring you all the action as it unfolds.
