Moments have defined the history of the Pro Worlds.
We'll all remember the one from 2021, a clip that we've see time and time again and will likely see replayed for the foreseeable future, but that one is just the latest in a 40-year history of Pro Worlds.
The quest for No. 6 for Paige Pierce and Paul McBeth continues. Catrina Allen and James Conrad — who both had throws that defined the 2021 Worlds — are the defending champions.
The PDGA, along with the Host Team in Emporia and Disc Golf Network, have created a tee time plan that will see both the MPO and FPO divisions split into two equal pools for the upcoming 2022 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championships. With the FPO field growing larger every year, this model is expected to be utilized in future iterations of Pro Worlds to accommodate the significant number of players, spectators, and media initiatives involved with the sport’s paramount event.

Doug Bjerkaas used words like agile, receptive, and dynamic to describe the ongoing preparation for the return of a PDGA Major to Emporia, Kansas.
Just over eight months away, Bjerkaas and his team are feeling the responsibility that comes with serving as hosts of the 2022 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championship and it’s a task that they’re not taking lightly.
