As we came into the final round of the Green Mountain Championship, all eyes were on Sarah Hokom. How can we forget what happened during the last GMC, when Paige Pierce came charging from the chase card to beat Hokom by one. On the final hole, Hokom was unaware of the scores and played her game rather than run the 70-footer that would have tied it.

Hole 18 Saturday at the Green Mountain Championship summed it all up: Paul McBeth needed a birdie to tie the Brewster Ridge course record, and he threw a perfect shot. The disc flew flat then started to fade as it approached the basket.

The Green Mountain Championship is Chris Dickerson’s fourth Disc Golf Pro Tour event of the season. He needs to finish in the top five to qualify for the Tour Championship, which he won last year. As a result, he is a man on a mission.
