Discology owner, Richard Sampson, will be competing at the 2012 PDGA World Championships in Charlotte, North Carolina, from 14-21 July.
Over 1000 pro and amateur players are expected for this week long competition, being played over 14 courses.
“To say I’m excited would be a bit of an under statement” said Richard.
“This is my first World Championships and also the first time I’ve been back to the USA since I first played disc golf at Pease Park in Austin, Texas in 1995.
I’ll be competing with my great mate and fellow Tasmanian, Harvey Yarnall. It’s gonna be a wild ten days and I can’t wait.
I’ll be playing in the Open division and will tackle three courses:
Renaissance – Moderately hilly, long, technical pro-level course with some heavily wooded holes and a few open holes. A monster with OB, mandos, ravines, creeks and diabolical pin placements. 7,282’(61)/9,407’(70)

Nevin – Tightly wooded, long, technical pro-level course with some elevation changes. Nicknamed The Nightmare, for good reason. 7,214’(63)/8,397’(68)

Bradford – Moderately hilly, moderately wooded pro-level course. Water in play on five holes. Minimal OB. 5,590’(55)/6,810’(58)

Jeez, some amazingly low scores over the weekend. There were four 1100+ rounds, from Feldberg, Schusterick and McBeth.
Congratulations to Paul McBeth and Valarie Jenkins for winning Mens and Womens Open division.
I enjoyed catching a few hours of the action streaming with discgolfplanet.tv
Specially enjoyed watching a 40m hole out by Sarah Hokom.
Here’s the results on PDGA.com (you might have to wait for it to upload)
Many of the world’s top players are currently competing at the Memorial Championships presented by Discraft in Scottsdale, Arizona.
After two rounds, leading the mens open division is Paul McBeth, one shot ahead of Dave Feldberg. Incredibly, both players shot 1100+ rated rounds. Near perfect golf.
The womens open div is also tight within Val Jenkins holding a slim lead.

I was watching the lead group this morning, the stream was good and the putts just kept dropping.
