The 2025 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championships have reached their climax in Nokia, Finland, with the top players from around the world set to face off in the final round. The stakes are high as the championship leaders prepare to battle it out for the title.
In the FPO (Females Professional) division, 15-year-old Iida Lehtomäki has taken a commanding lead going into the final round. With a stunning performance that included a -6 front nine, Lehtomäki looked almost unbeatable. However, her game faltered on hole 16, where she struggled with her upshot and was ultimately forced to settle for an octuple bogey. Despite this setback, Lehtomäki remains one stroke ahead of Henna Blomroos, who made a remarkable comeback with two picture-perfect drives on the same hole.
Blomroos's incredible round, which included a par on 16 that would have been the highest-rated major round in FPO history, kept her in contention for the title. Meanwhile, Ohn Scoggins struggled to find her form, finishing with a +5 performance that leaves her three strokes behind Blomroos and four ahead of Eveliina Salonen.
In the MPO (Males Professional) division, Gannon Buhr has taken the lead with a two-stroke advantage over Anthony Barela. Barela's incredible burst of course-record-setting violence on Saturday propelled him to second place, while Sullivan Tipton re-emerged as a contender after a strong back nine.
Ezra Aderhold rounds out the final card in MPO, three strokes behind Buhr and tied with Tipton for third place. Aaron Gossage and Niklas Anttila also made a late push to join the chase card, but ultimately fell short of securing a top-three spot.
As the players prepare to face off in the final round, all eyes will be on Finland's Nokia Disc Golf Park, affectionately known as "The Beast." With so many talented players vying for the title, anything can happen. Will Gannon Buhr maintain his lead and secure the championship? Or will Anthony Barela make a dramatic comeback to claim the top spot?
Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: Championship Sunday promises to be an exhilarating conclusion to an already thrilling competition.
