This season the Disc Golf Pro Tour Plus events have been electric. >> Seven birdies [music] in a row to finish. He wins again. Paul Ulibarri >> [music] >> He takes the title at Ledgestone. >> Every sport has seasons and chapters, the kind where it feels like every big event somehow tops the one [music] before it. The stars show up, the pressure keeps building, and by the end of the year you realize you witnessed something special. And that's exactly what 2026 has felt like on the Disc Golf Pro Tour. Before the season began, four tournaments stood apart, the Disc Golf Pro Tour's DGPT Plus events. Higher purses, more [music] tour points, more days. It's the deepest field of the season. The tour designed them to be its biggest regular season [music] stages. But that alone doesn't make fans remember them. Think about Augusta. No one talks about the purse alone. They remember Tiger in 2019. [music] Think about Wimbledon. You remember Federer and Nadal playing until darkness, back and forth. The places stay with us because of [music] the stories they produce.

The leaderboard was never really settled all week, [music] and every time someone looked to pull away, someone else answered. But by Sunday afternoon, one name just kept [music] hanging around, Paul Ulibarri. For most fans, Uli is one of the voices of the sport, a broadcaster, a mentor, a coach, someone who's helped grow professional Disc Golf for years. But one thing [music] has always been missing, a signature Disc Golf Pro Tour victory. >> If Uli can go birdie, he's going to force someone else to have to birdie out just to catch him. Doesn't have the height. >> Oh, it's drifting. Is it going to fade? There it is. >> Uli to become solo leader at 36-under. >> Standing on the final holes, it didn't feel like people were simply watching another tournament....
