The stage is set for a thrilling showdown at the Lemon Lake Flight Center in Crown Point, Indiana, as the world's top disc golfers prepare to face off in the 2018 Tim Selinske US Masters Championships. This prestigious event has been a staple of the PDGA tournament circuit for nearly a decade, with Jay and Deb Svitko, the driving force behind Lemon Lake County Park and Flight Center, hosting over 100 tournaments in the last ten years alone.


Lemon Lake has seen its fair share of high-level events, including two previous World Championships won by Barry Schultz and Paul McBeth. However, this year's tournament marks a new chapter for many competitors, with some players returning to the property for the first time since 2010 or 2013. For those who have been away, the memories are likely to be bittersweet – while some will recall their triumphs on the courses, others may remember their disappointments.


The competition is fierce, with a strong field of contenders vying for the top spot. Among them are two familiar faces: Barry Schultz and Dave Feldberg. Schultz, a six-time champion at this event, has consistently risen to the challenge whenever the Tim Selinske US Masters rolls around. His dominance on the course is undeniable, having won six titles since the tournament's inception in 2010.


Feldberg, who finished second both times he competed here previously, is looking to make up for past heartbreak by taking home the title this year. In an interview at the Lemon Lake Flight Center's pro shop, Feldberg revealed that his strategy may have changed, citing the fact that the Blue course will only be played once this weekend. "It's looking good for me this time," he said confidently.


The first round gets underway on Friday morning, with players facing a challenging day on the Gold course before taking on the Blue course in back-to-back rounds on Saturday and one final round on Sunday. With high stakes and intense competition, it will be interesting to see who emerges victorious at the 2018 Tim Selinske US Masters Championships.
