(via Disc Golf Pro Tour)

After lengthy delays and continued monitoring of weather patterns on the ground at the Trubank Des Moines Challenge presented by Discraft, the DGPT suspended play on Saturday in accordance with its weather policies. 

Play was underway for the FPO field while most MPO competitors had yet to begin. Storms are expected to continue to roll through the area for the remainder of the day, and the course area was under a tornado watch until 7:00 PM CT. Based on this suspension, the DGPT has made the following adjustments to the competition schedule for Sunday in accordance with PDGA rules. 

FPO

The FPO division will resume competition from their previous lies on Sunday morning (June 25) at 6:32 AM CT and complete round two. Then, the FPO field will immediately play a third and final round with no cut after cards are shuffled based on scores.

MPO competitors who had already begun round two will resume play from their previous lie. The event will conclude for the MPO division after the completion of 36 holes.
