Kristin Tattar Dominates Jonesboro Open with Convincing 9-Stroke Victory

Kristin Tattar's impressive display of disc golfing prowess on Sunday left little doubt about the outcome of the FPO Final Round at the 2024 Jonesboro Open. The level of dominance she exhibited was reminiscent of her best form from previous seasons, and some might even say it rivaled that of Paige Pierce in her prime.

While many were eager to see who would finish second, with Eveliina Salonen and Holyn Handley locked in a tight battle for the runner-up spot, Tattar was busy cementing her place at the top. Her 4-under-par performance earned her an impressive rating of 994, which solidified her position as the class of the field.

One highlight-reel moment came on hole 7 when Tattar nearly pulled off a miraculous blind forehand approach shot that would have resulted in an eagle. Although it ultimately turned into a birdie for just one stroke, it was a testament to her skill and precision. Throughout the round, she managed to sink eight birdies, further demonstrating her mastery of the course.

In the end, Tattar's 9-stroke victory over Holyn Handley marked an impressive comeback from her recent slump, which had seen her streak of six consecutive major championships come to an end in March at USWDGC. With this win, she is now looking more confident than ever heading into her next challenge – the Music City Open, where she will face off against a tough field.

As Tattar prepares for her upcoming defense of another major championship title at the PDGA Champions Cup in two weeks' time, it's clear that she has regained her momentum and is back to being one of the top contenders.
