The competition at the 2022 Throw Pink Women's Disc Golf Championship has just gotten a whole lot fiercer. Catrina Allen, a two-time PDGA World Champion and seven-time Major winner, proved once again why she's one of the best in the game with an incredible performance on Friday's second round. Joining her in achieving double digits were Ohn Scoggins and Henna Blomroos, each showcasing their exceptional skills in different ways.


Allen's secret to success lay in her exceptional putting, where she maintained a perfect record from C1X and landed two out of four from C2. When asked about the possibility of breaking into double digits after a six-under opening round, Allen confessed that she had doubts. However, it was clear that she'd found her rhythm by the end of the day.


Scoggins, on the other hand, wasn't a surprise to excel in putting. As a two-time defending Masters World Champion, her precision with C1X was nothing short of impressive – 100% from this challenging aspect. Scoggins' driving skills also shone brightly, hitting an astonishing 91% of fairways according to UDisc data.


"I played it smart today," Scoggins reflected on her strategy. "I knew my strengths and weaknesses, and I focused on taking par when necessary while still going for birdies on the holes that mattered most."


Blomroos took an early lead in terms of scoring, reaching 11-down through 15 holes before stumbling slightly with a double bogey on 17. Yet, she managed to bounce back with a well-timed birdie on the final hole.


"My game was clicking all day," Blomroos said. "I felt confident in my shots and focused on executing them."


Sarah Hokom will join Allen and Scoggins as part of the lead card for round 3 after making an impressive comeback from a sluggish start. The defending champion, Missy Gannon, struggled to maintain her pace despite some exceptional putts, finishing with an up-and-down round of six birdies and four bogeys that left her in fifth place.


The excitement is building as we head into the final stretch. Don't miss live coverage of round 3 on the Disc Golf Network, starting at 9:30 a.m. Eastern, to see who will claim victory at this year's Throw Pink Women's Championship.
