Kristin Tattar Dominates at 2023 PDGA Champions Cup

Kristin Tattar has solidified her position as one of the top players in women's disc golf after winning the 2023 PDGA Champions Cup presented by Bushnell. This victory marks her third PDGA Major title, and it was a dominating performance that left no doubt about her superiority on the course.

Tattar's impressive display of skill and consistency saw her extend her lead to 14 strokes over the competition. According to StatMando, this is the largest margin of victory ever recorded at an FPO Major with a field of over 30 players. Her wire-to-wire win also marked a significant milestone, as she extended her bogey-free streak back to the Blue Ridge Championship.

While Tattar's streak of 74 consecutive holes without a bogey was finally broken on hole 4 of the final round, she quickly regained her composure and maintained a clean scorecard for the remainder of the tournament. In fact, Tattar only took a single bogey throughout the entire event, showcasing her exceptional focus and discipline.

Tattar's victory is all the more impressive when compared to her previous performance at the 2022 PDGA Champions Cup. Paige Pierce won that event by nine strokes under par, but Tattar's final score in 2023 marked an astonishing 18-stroke improvement. The new pins introduced for the FPO division in 2023 also presented a challenge for Tattar, but she rose to the occasion with ease.

When asked about her performance this weekend, Tattar expressed her confidence and satisfaction with her game. "Last year I feel like I played very well during Worlds as well," she said, "but I feel like here I had better flow and I felt so confident." She even went on to say that this was the best performance of her career.

Tattar's victory marks back-to-back Major wins for her, with her last win being the 2022 PDGA Pro World Championships. As she looks ahead to her next challenge, Tattar mentioned her desire to win more Majors and specifically mentioned the European Open as one of her top goals.

The competition was fierce in second place, with Ohn Scoggins finishing at 13 strokes under par. Kat Mertsch, Catrina Allen, and Hailey King tied for third place at 11 strokes under par, showcasing the high level of skill among the FPO players.

With Tattar's win, she has cemented her position as one of the top contenders in women's disc golf. As she prepares to take on new challenges, including the European Open in July, fans and opponents alike will be watching with great interest to see what she can achieve next.
