Worlds updates

[Titanic_Sinks]

I sooooo wanna say I'm tired of all this MJ talk, but I won't I'll just say this, he won't be on top when it's all said and done.

Them's some purty brave words, pardner. Whatcha say we have us-selves a little showdown.

Oh wait. We've already got one! I hope MJ pulls through.

(on a side note, I can say I'm satisfied that Will Snubsterick is looking less and less likely...I've been snubbed the last two times I've returned a disc. It sucks to go through the trouble just to hear, "oh, sweet. Thanks bro.")

 

[Titanic_Sinks]

Not sure if this has been brought up yet or not. So say KC wins Masters right? Will the new Teebirds say 13x Champ or 1x World Masters Champ, or 13x World Masters Champ?

I'm not sure, but I'm hoping for "lucky" 13!

Melynda Apton, 2011 Am world champ is in 5th place, beating elaine, des, stanhope, Liz, Paige....and is still has yet to be offered a sponsorship from a major disc company WTF!!!

^This!! She's only been playing a few years, but is a really solid player. Her father knows his dg, and has really turned her into a threat on the course. Having said that, she's a complete sweetheart in person. Why she isn't sponsored is beyond me.

Wtf is this snubbing story about? Link?

 

[BionicRib]

Sorry to go off topic, but does anybody know what is up with the sound on dgptv?........

 

[pineappletrees]

So Charlotte, how does it feel to know some of the pro women call your courses easy? lol

What is your problem with him?

edit: I'm an idiot

long story short is a guy on dgcr found one of will's putters that he left behind during a practice round. The dgcr guys drove a decent distance out of his way to return the disc to will. some could call him a fanboy, but i thought it was a really solid gesture to return the disc. will didnt say thank you and snubbed the dgcr guy. . .not really that big of a deal, but still a thank you instead of "ive been looking for that" and then walk away is a bit more professional and reasonable - side - will did have a poor round for his standards so he was prolly a bit po'd

Scores are rolling in

Climo up 6 strokes. Boom 13x on the way.

Something Fishy is going on with Catrina Allen and McCoy.

shows different scores from the link up top.

for anyone watching the FPO round today, didn't that course seem very very basic (at least for a worlds)? and a 50 is 1000 on that super short par 55 layout? looks can be deceiving, but it looks like a 47/48 imo to scratch 1000

I think i am just an idiot the total scores are the same. It was the totals that was throwing me off on the pop score.

49 was a 1009. So a 50 would probably be just shy of 1000 rated.

It's wooded with OB that can be hard enough.

Check out Cam Colglazier's PDGA #. Crazy how high it is compared to those directly around him. 9000 spots over Wysoki's who is a younger player himself.

Only 1 player in Open has a higher # and he is over 50 strokes off the lead.

 

[biscoe]

not open therefore not 13x...

wasn't kenny one of the ones who used to rant against top players "hiding" in masters?

 

[biscoe]

Apfaff (formerly bmxcrazekid) is up to second in juniors under 16 representing spotsy and dgcr- gained 10 strokes on the lead today and is now 6 back.

It is a world championship. It is and will be 13x.

you can believe that if you so choose...

Pretty interesting leader board right now. Kinda surprising to see GG, Cameron, and Seppo in the hunt for top 10 finishes. Hopefully Cale kills it the next couple days and bring the title to MN but it'd be nice to see MJ get it too. I'd be surprised if McBeth or Will doesn't win, but on these technical NC courses anything can happen...

Good stuff!
