World Champion Kristin Tattar Dominates Disc Golf Pro Tour Playoff

Reigning PDGA World Champion Kristin Tattar spoke to media about living her dream after winning another tournament at Smugglers' Notch in Vermont. This was her fourth event of the season, and she has been absolutely on fire, adding yet another trophy to her collection on Sunday. Her impressive performance earned her a seven-stroke victory and pushed her average rating over 1000.

Tattar's success is not new; she has now won four events in a row, including the Des Moines Challenge, Pro Worlds, Butler County, and the Green Mountain Championship. In these tournaments, she averaged an incredible 987-1001-1007-1006 rating respectively. Her dominance was on full display at the Green Mountain Championship, where she took the lead from the sixth hole onwards.

The competition was fierce, with Tattar facing off against Henna Blomroos in a two-player battle. The Finnish player had separated herself from the rest of the field, much like they did during the Worlds. However, Tattar's consistent play paid off as she finished with a 4-under round, the best in the field by two strokes.

In addition to her impressive individual performance, Tattar also led the week in strokes gained putting (10.72) and hit on 33% of her circle 2 putts. Blomroos, who is having an incredible season, dominated off the tee with an impressive 23.50 strokes gained tee-to-green.

The Green Mountain Championship also marked the beginning of the inaugural DGPT Playoffs, a two-event series that will have a significant impact on seeding in the bracket-style DGPT Championships in October. Some notable movers include Eveliina Salonen, who moved up four spots and is now qualified, and Henna Blomroos, who jumped nine spots and is also qualified for the play-in round.

The competition is heating up as players jockey for position heading into the next event at Maple Hill. Kristin Tattar will be looking to continue her dominance, but with several top players on the bubble, it's anyone's game.
