The first day of competition at the Disc Golf Pro Tour has come to a close, and Ricky Wysocki is sitting atop the MPO leaderboard with an impressive score of 15 under par. The American golfer played a flawless round, carding 13 birdies and ending his day with an eagle on the final hole.
Wysocki was closely followed by Paul McBeth, who also achieved 13 birdies but took a bogey on the fifth hole to drop back from the leader's position. Gavin Rathbun finished the day tied with McBeth at 12 under par, while Matt Orum rounded out the top four spots with an 11-under-par score.
The FPO division saw Kristin Tattar take control of the leaderboard, shooting a remarkable -7 round to establish a four-stroke lead over Sarah Hokom and Lydia Lyons. The Estonian golfer's dominance was evident throughout her game, as she carded 11 birdies and demonstrated exceptional accuracy with her drives.
Tattar's impressive performance was matched by only one other player, Hailey King, who shot -2 and will be looking to make a comeback in the second round. Other notable players include Jessica Weese, Rebecca Cox, and Deann Carey, all of whom are within three strokes of Tattar's position.
In the MPO division, several golfers achieved exceptional results, including McBeth, Rathbun, Orum, and Eagle McMahon. The latter narrowly missed out on a spot in the feature card for the second round but will still be a force to be reckoned with tomorrow.
The FPO field saw some notable performances, including Shelbi Dutton's 89% C1x putting rate and Deann Carey's impressive strokes gained putting of 5.13. Casey Pennington also stood out, achieving an 80% putting rate from the C2 position.
With the second round set to take place tomorrow, fans can expect an exciting competition as players vie for their positions on the leaderboard. The action will be broadcast live on the Disc Golf Network at 2:30 ET, and updates can be tracked through UDisc Live.
