The Masters Disc Golf World Championships is reaching its climax at Stocksdale Park, with some of the world's top golfers vying for top honors. In the Masters 40+ division, four players rose to the challenge to make the lead card for Friday's round four: Dave Feldberg, Brian Schweberger, JohnE McCray, and Barry Schultz.
These seasoned pros showcased their skills in remarkable fashion, carding a combined total of just two bogeys throughout the round. Feldberg was the standout performer, firing off a flawless 13 under par 49 to take the lead by one stroke over both Schweberger and Schultz. The trio will face stiff competition from McCray, who is currently four strokes back.
Meanwhile, in the Masters 50+ division, Patrick Brown and Ron Covers have been locked in a tight battle for the top spot since the opening round. While Brown started strong, taking an early two-stroke lead, Convers managed to tie it up 11 holes later. However, Brown pulled away with a series of impressive shots, including a crucial birdie on hole 14 and an eagle on 18.
Brown's efforts have put him six strokes clear of Covers and 11 ahead of Kevin Couch and Roger Reyes, who jumped into the lead card after matching Feldberg's hot round of 49. On the other side of town, Courtney McCoy is making a push in the Masters Women 40+ division, shooting a respectable two-over-par 58 at Rosedale Park.
In contrast, Kimberly Giannola remains in the driver's seat, leading by six strokes after the opening round and adding to her advantage during round two. With only Friday's round remaining before the semifinals, McCoy will need to shoot low if she hopes to catch the leader. The Women 50+ division is all but decided, with Tavish Carduff poised to become a world champion after taking a commanding 21-stroke lead.
Pete May is also on the verge of claiming his title in the Masters 75+ division, currently sitting 28 strokes ahead of his nearest rival.
