Moose, Mayhem, and Major Crowns: Our US Women’s Final Recap

MVP Disc Sports Gatekeeper Media No Girls Allowed Panel AnotherRound SLC FlyDSGN Brighton Disc Golf Birdies in the Beehive Layout Previews USWDGC In this episode, Nick is joined by Brodie, Sean, and Scott for part two of our US Women’s recap as we relive Saturday and Championship Sunday at Brighton and Dragonfly. We talk through the lightning delays, the scramble to keep players, volunteers, and spectators safe, and the incredible way the local disc golf community stepped up at every turn. From emergency shuttles and last-minute spotters to unforgettable moments like a moose wandering near the fairway, a chaotic car alarm during live play, and the emotional energy of finishing a weather-filled round at dusk on the mountain, this event delivered one wild story after another. We also break down the dramatic finishes, including Lisa Fajkus charging to the FP40 title and Silva Saarinen’s major win after a tense final-day battle with Ohn Scoggins. Down in the valley, Dragonfly delivered its own fireworks with a sudden-death playoff in FA1 and a memorable championship moment. We close by reflecting on the artistry behind the now-iconic snowboard trophy, the lasting impact this event had on Utah disc golf, and by honoring Craig Myrick and John Todd Hunter, two important figures in our community whose legacies will not be forgotten.
