The Discraft Green Mountain Championship presented by Upper Park Disc Golf came to a close over the weekend, delivering an action-packed final round that will be remembered for a long time. The event marked the fourth and last round of the DGPT regular season, with players vying for a spot in the championship, additional prize money, and the coveted trophy.


The MPO division saw Chris Dickerson emerge victorious, claiming his first Elite Series win of the season with a strong seven-under final round. However, it was a closely contested battle, as Ricky Wysocki pushed hard to take down the lead. Wysocki's impressive performance included five consecutive birdies, which nearly propelled him into the top spot. Unfortunately for him, Dickerson's calm and consistent play ultimately secured his first DGPT regular-season win.


In other notable performances from the MPO division, Eagle McMahon shot an impressive 10-under-par to jump up 19 spots on the leaderboard and finish tied seventh. Paul McBeth also made headlines, boasting a perfect scrambling record and showcasing his exceptional skills.


Meanwhile, in the FPO division, Hailey King demonstrated her dominance, claiming her third Elite Series win of the season with a one-stroke victory over Sarah Hokom. King's path to victory was not without its challenges, as she took a double-bogey on hole 2 and two bogeys during the round. However, she managed to regain focus and birdie both holes 16 and 17 to pull ahead of Hokom.


In the final showdown, King emerged victorious after Hokom faltered with a missed putt from C1, securing her first DGPT Elite Series event win of the season. This victory adds to King's impressive resume, which includes two PDGA National Tour wins and victories at the Dynamic Discs Open and Texas States.


The action continues in the PDGA Elite Series as players prepare for the 2021 Music City Open in Nashville, Tenn., set to take place from September 23-26.
