Thrilling Finish Looms as Top Players Clash in DGPT Championship
Date Published
The stage is set for an electrifying conclusion to the 2022 Disc Golf Pro Tour Championship presented by Barbasol. Taking place at Nevin Park in Charlotte, North Carolina, the event has been a rollercoaster ride from start to finish. With the defending FPO champion Missy Gannon and reigning PDGA World Champion Kristin Tattar leading their respective fields, the tension is palpable.
Paul McBeth, the second seed and 2022 PDGA World Champion, has certainly played his part in creating this excitement. He turned in a stunning bogey-free scorecard on Saturday, tying the course record with an incredible 7-under round. This performance was marked by an impressive 89% fairway hit mark and a flawless 100% putting record in C1X, according to UDisc.
McBeth's dominance is not the only story, however. Ricky Wysocki, the top seed, has been a force to be reckoned with throughout the tournament. Although he started with a bogey on hole 1, he recovered to match McBeth's impressive score of 6-under. Isaac Robinson, who burst onto the scene this year on the DGPT, has also been a revelation, finishing at an impressive 5-under.
In the FPO field, Kristin Tattar finished strongly with a 3-under total over the final six holes and matched the hot round of the weekend at 3-under. This display of skill has set her up perfectly for a title defense alongside Missy Gannon, who held on to keep her chances alive despite a plus-1 score.
The drama is far from over, with Valerie Mandujano still in contention after a plus-1 round and Ohn Scoggins joining the mix with an even par performance. With the survive and advance format adding an extra layer of tension to the proceedings, it's anyone's game at this stage.
As the players head into the final rounds, the record-setting purse of $35,000 is within reach for those who can come out on top. The live coverage of the FPO begins at 9:30 a.m. ET on DiscGolfNetwork.com, while MPO coverage starts at 2:30 p.m. ET.
