Wysocki and Pierce Maintain Leads Heading into Final Two Rounds

Date Published

The second round of the PDGA National Tour's Gentlemen's Club Challenge presented by Innova Champion Discs has come to a close, with Ricky Wysocki and Paige Pierce still holding their top spots. The event, taking place at Course Innova in Las Vegas, Nevada, is attracting some of the world's best disc golfers.


The day began under cloudy skies, with temperatures feeling unusually cold for many players and spectators. However, as the sun rose higher in the sky, the conditions improved, but only temporarily. By the end of the round, it was clear that many had underestimated the rapid temperature drop that would occur as the sun set behind the mountains.


Paige Pierce led the field coming into Round 2, with Jennifer Allen and Elaine King close behind. The women's division played a challenging course, measuring just under 8,500 feet. Pierce, known for her consistency, seemed to struggle on the front nine but managed to regain her form on the back nine. She maintained a lead of two or more strokes throughout the round, with Jennifer Allen and Elaine King keeping pace.


In the Open division, Ricky Wysocki was the clear leader after Round 1, with many top players just a few strokes behind. The pressure seemed to be mounting for the other competitors as they pushed to catch Wysocki. However, despite their best efforts, no one could manage to overtake him. JohnE McCray and Ricky played nearly identical rounds, each finishing at nine under par (51), while Eagle McMahon had an incredible round, finishing with the day's best score of 11 under par (49).


Jeremy Koling also had a standout performance, matching McMahon's score with seven consecutive birdies on holes 2-8. Cale Leiviska finished just one stroke behind them at 10 under par (50), bogey-free.


Despite these impressive performances, the big story is that no one could catch Ricky Wysocki. He remains the leader heading into Round 3, two ahead of JohnE McCray and four ahead of Eagle McMahon and Paul Ulibarri. It will be interesting to see if anyone can close the gap in the final round.
