Kevin Jones Takes Commanding Lead into Final Round of Green Mountain Championship

Kevin Jones is on fire as he takes a commanding lead into the final day of the 2020 Disc Golf Pro Tour (DGPT) – Green Mountain Championship. The talented player carded an incredible 10-under-par round, breaking out from the pack with a scorching 1081-rated performance that left him at 17-under-par overall.

"I was really close to getting my birdies on the early holes, but I made a few careless mistakes," Jones explained in a post-round interview. "Fortunately, I managed to pick up my game on the tougher holes and capitalize on some great opportunities." His impressive play has earned him a three-shot lead going into Saturday's final round.

Eagle McMahon is hot on Jones' heels, just one shot behind with an 8-under-par score. The experienced player is feeling confident after skipping the previous event and focusing his practice on these specific courses. "I'm playing within myself and trying out some new strategies," he said. "It's working for me so far." McMahon has a notable advantage in that he's never finished outside the top 30 at this venue.

James Conrad and Calvin Heimburg round out the lead card, both having put together solid rounds to jump into contention. However, Jones' impressive performance has set the bar high for Saturday's action-packed final day.

On the FPO side of things, Paige Pierce and Hailey King are battling it out at the top of the leaderboard. Pierce shook off a double bogey on the third hole with an eagle on the fourth – her first ever at this course – while King demonstrated impressive resilience after a double bogey on the seventh hole. The young gun bounced back with a bogey-free 4-under round on the back nine to join Pierce in the lead.

Sarah Hokom and Catrina Allen complete the FPO lead card, both having shown flashes of brilliance despite struggling in certain aspects of their game. As the players prepare for Saturday's final showdown, fans can tune in to the Disc Golf Network at 12:35pm EST to catch all the action.
