Dark Horses and Stars Shine Bright at Pro Worlds

The stage is set for a thrilling conclusion to the 2022 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championship. Two dark horses, Tristan Tanner and Aaron Gossage, have emerged from the B Pool in Emporia, Kansas, and taken the lead after two rounds of competition at Pro Worlds. Meanwhile, the top players in the world are hot on their heels, battling for a share of the championship title.

Tristan Tanner, a Colorado native, has been playing his own game, refusing to let pressure get to him. "I've been trying not to think about what anyone else is doing," he said. "I've only been able to do what I do by trusting my game and skills." Tanner's stellar play has seen him jump from the B Pool to share the lead with Gossage, who also hails from Colorado.

Aaron Gossage was quick to credit his fellow Rocky Mountain native for their similar games. "Tristan and I throw really far, forehand and backhand, and hyzers," he said. "We're just playing our game and not letting pressure get to us." Gossage's 10-under round saw him jump seven spots into a tie with five-time world champion Paul McBeth.

The chase card is heating up, with Ricky Wysocki surging 45 spots into a tie for sixth after a hot round of 12-under. Garrett Gurthie leads the charge on the chase card at 17-under. Calvin Heimburg has matched Gossage's score to jump seven spots and join McBeth in second place.
