European Disc Golf Scene Booms Ahead of 2009 Season
Date Published
As the 2009 season gets underway, the PDGA Europe website has undergone a significant revamp to cater to the rising demand for disc golf events across the continent. The revamped site, developed by webmaster Sinus Frank, is now fully bilingual in English and can be accessed directly from PDGA.com or at http://pdga-europe.com/. This upgrade reflects the phenomenal growth of disc golf in Europe, which shows no signs of slowing down.
One of the most highly anticipated events on the European calendar is the 2009 European Open, scheduled to take place from August 27-30. The tournament will feature two professional divisions: the Open (MPO) and Women (FPO). With a limited field of just 150 players, competition is expected to be fierce as top athletes vie for the title and a share of the minimum guaranteed purse of €15,000. Registration details can be found at http://www.opendiscgolf.com/.
But that's not all – the European Open will also serve as the backdrop for an exciting team competition: the President's Cup. Taking place on August 26th, this unique event pits the top players from Europe against their American counterparts in a thrilling match of skill and sportsmanship. The stakes are high, with Team Europe looking to dethrone their opponents and claim bragging rights – and the coveted champagne trophy.
For those who prefer to watch rather than play, Finnish National TV Channel YLE will be broadcasting a 28-minute highlight show three weeks after the European Open. This exclusive coverage is sure to capture the essence of the event and give disc golf enthusiasts around the world a taste of the action.
