The second round of the DGPT Europe Elite Series got underway at the Tallinn Song Festival Grounds, with all eyes on the leaders from yesterday's action-packed first round. As expected, Moving Day saw some significant changes to the leaderboard, but both Heidi Laine and Ricky Wysocki still sit comfortably in their respective top spots.


In the FPO division, Finland's Heidi Laine went into Round 2 with a two-stroke lead over Eveliina Salonen, who had carded an impressive -9 score yesterday. While Laine didn't quite match that pace today, she managed to extend her lead by one stroke after carding a -1 round. Her closest competitor before the round, Eveliina Salonen, struggled with a +2 score, dropping from second place to fifth.


Meanwhile, Missy Gannon took advantage of Salonen's misstep to move into second place, shooting a remarkable -6 round that puts her just two strokes behind Laine. Kaidi Allsalu also climbed the leaderboard, moving up one spot to third with a solid performance. The Estonian crowd favorite will be hoping to close the gap between herself and Laine in tomorrow's final round.


Other notable movers in the FPO division include Jenni Karppinen, who shot -4 today to move into contention just four strokes behind Laine. Finnish players Henna Bloomroos and Anniken Kristiansen Steen also made significant strides up the leaderboard with hot rounds of -7 and -6 respectively. Estonian duo Kaire Tekku and Keiti Tätte, along with Eveliina Salonen, round out the top 10.


In the MPO division, Ricky Wysocki continued to dominate proceedings, posting a -9 score in Round 2 that leaves him an impressive five strokes ahead of Kyle Klein in second place. Although Ezra Aderhold shot the hot round of the day with a -12 score, he still trails Wysocki by 14 strokes.


Paul McBeth climbed into third place after carding a -10 round, matching Kyle Klein's score. Joona Heinänen and Aaron Gossage both made massive moves up the leaderboard with bogey-free rounds of -11, while Latvian player Rainers Balodis and German superstar Simon Lizotte also matched that impressive score to move into contention.


While it seems unlikely that anyone will be able to catch Wysocki in tomorrow's final round, the DGPT Europe Elite Series has already delivered some thrilling action this season. Be sure to tune in for the exciting conclusion on the Disc Golf Network!
