Missy Gannon Defends Title at Disc Golf Pro Tour Championship
Date Published
In a day filled with incredible comebacks and record-breaking scores, Missy Gannon cemented her status as one of the top disc golfers in the world. For the third time overall, Gannon hoisted the DGPT Championship trophy aloft, thanks to an impressive 9-under final round at Matt Keats Memorial Disc Golf Course in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Gannon's victory marked a successful defense of her title from last year, as she took home a massive $35,000 first-place check. The three-player race for the top spot was intense, with Gannon taking control on the back nine to finish well ahead of Kristin Tattar and Ohn Scoggins, who tied for second place.
However, not all storylines were resolved in favor of the favorites. In a stunning display of resilience and skill, Nate Buhr mounted an epic comeback against Ricky Wysocki, narrowing the gap from six strokes to just one stroke on the final holes. With clutch birdies on 17 and 18, Buhr secured the win, his second DGPT Championship title.
The thrilling conclusion marked the largest comeback in DGPT history, a testament to the incredible depth of talent in this year's field. Wysocki, who had dominated for three consecutive rounds, ultimately fell short in his bid for a third-straight championship.
Ezra Robinson rounded out the podium with a solo third-place finish, rounding off an exciting weekend of competition that left spectators on the edge of their seats.
