Post Event Pulse: 2025 Discraft Ledgestone Open

Valerie Mandujano Earns Her First Win in Two Seasons

Valerie Mandujano secured her first victory in over two seasons, defeating Ohn Scoggins in a three-hole playoff to win the Discraft Ledgestone Open presented by ZÜCA. She dissected Sunset Hills with a -5 on Friday and a bogey-free, 994-rated -11 during round three’s moving day, highlighted by seven birdies on the back nine and six straight to close the round. That hot round gave her a one-stroke lead heading into Championship Sunday.

Championship Sunday turned into a battle for Mandujano. She went -4 through 16 holes, but back-to-back bogeys on 17 and 18, combined with Ohn Scoggins’ late charge, forced a playoff. On the third trip through the playoff hole, hole 18, Mandujano drained a 42-footer for birdie to seal the win.

This was Mandujano’s fourth career win and her first of the season. She earned her first Tour victory in 2022 at the WACO Annual Charity Open, followed by another that year at the Portland Open. In 2023, she captured her third win at Idlewild with a -9 finish, six strokes clear of Scoggins.

Mandujano’s rise has been building since the Northwest Disc Golf Championships, where she finished sixth. She followed with five more top-10s, including fourth at The Preserve and sixth at the European Disc Golf Festival. That momentum culminated in this weekend’s victory, highlighted by a hot round and steady play before outdueling Ohn in the playoff.

With 1.5x points awarded at the DGPT+ event, Mandujano earned 200 DGPT points and climbed two spots in the DGPT World Standings, breaking into the top 10 as the No. 9 FPO player in the world. She’s now safely inside the Tour Championship cut line heading into the final two regular-season events: Idlewild and the Discraft Great Lakes Open.

Gannon Buhr Runs away with Another DGPT+ Tournament Win

Gannon Buhr picked up his third victory in as many weeks, taking down the Ledgestone Open by five strokes on Sunday to defend his title. Buhr played his game all weekend, and that level of consistency mixed with his stellar rounds simply couldn’t be matched. He took the lead in round two at -19 and never looked back. On moving day at Northwood Black, he shot -8 to take a three-stroke lead into Championship Sunday at Lake Eureka (Temp). His victory lap was a -11 final round, highlighted by eight straight birdies on the back nine. Buhr’s consistency showed as he led in all the key stat categories and finished just behind the five players who putted 100% from C1X, posting a 96% mark himself.

Buhr is the best in the world for a reason and continues to fuel the Greatest of All Time narrative with his prolific play. At this point in the season, he has captured the World Title along with four other DGPT wins, including two DGPT+ events.

Gannon is still hungry for more, setting a new goal for the rest of his season: achieving the highest PDGA player rating of all time. He currently sits at 1061 rated, just behind Paul McBeth’s all-time best of 1062 in 2020. With six events left this season—four of which he’s the defending champion (USDGC, Tour Championship, Green Mountain Championship, and the Discraft Great Lakes Open)—that goal is well within reach.

Kyle Klein Goes Low on the Final Day, Takes Second Place

Kyle Klein tied the hot round this weekend, shooting -12 on Championship Sunday to move up three spots and finish second. He lit up the back nine, birdieing eight of nine holes to finish -33 for the tournament, taking solo second by two strokes.

Klein’s podium at Ledgestone matches his best finish of the season. He earned second place twice before, at the Open at Austin and the Northwest Disc Golf Championship. While Klein has the talent, inconsistency has made his season up-and-down. From late March through May, he posted four top-ten finishes in six events, including the two podiums mentioned above. After a tough showing at The Preserve, he bounced back with strong performances during the European stretch, highlighted by a fourth-place finish at the Krokhol Open.

Klein collected 166 points in the DGPT World Standings this weekend, vaulting him up three spots to ninth. He remains well within the Tour Championship cut line with six events left.

Addison Woodard Impresses in First DGPT Event

Addison Woodard made waves at her first career DGPT event this past weekend. The Genoa, Illinois, native showcased her power and elite game throughout the tournament, finishing tied for 13th at +5.

Woodard shredded Northwoods Black on day one, shooting -3. Her power shone on the first tee, as she was the only FPO player in the field to take the two. She accomplished this feat twice, throwing her drive to circle’s edge and nailing the putt on Sunday. To top it all off, she secured a drop-in eagle on hole 6 at Sunset Hills, one of only three eagles on the hole for the weekend.

Addison has a win off tour this season at the IOS #131 Forest City Frenzy presented by Discraft. She also played in the two majors in the States, taking 25th and 40th at Champions Cup and U.S. Women’s, respectively.

Addison Woodard’s next event is Discrafts CCR Open in Milford, Michigan, in two weeks.

The Tour Championship Cut Line

The Tour Championship is the culmination of the DGPT season and often offers the highest player payouts in both divisions. Entry is exclusive—players must earn their way in. Check out this year’s routes to the championship here.

The DGPT Championship field size will remain the same, with 32 MPO and 20 FPO competitors qualifying. However, the World Standings cut line has now been moved to the top 28 for MPO and the top 18 for FPO. The last four spots in MPO and the last two spots in FPO will be awarded to the top finishers at the MVP Open who fall outside the World Standings cut line. Additionally, players will have a chance to progress from the Green Mountain Championship to the MVP Open via the same method. More info here.

Below is the breakdown of the last four in, the players on the bubble, and the first four out. As of past seasons, the winners of DGPT and PDGA Pro Major events who do not otherwise qualify for the Tour Championship will receive special invites. These players will be added as the bottom seeds and will not displace other qualified competitors.
