As well as presenting a great opportunity to score well, this was also the last Elite Series event before the first major of the 2023 season so a strong finish here could give players momentum going into the PDGA Champions Cup.
The FPO field saw a return to form for Kristin Tattar and the MPO field had yet another come-from-behind victory as Simon Lizotte won from the chase card.
Round 2 of the 2023 Music City Open presented by Lone Star Disc saw some changes at the top of the leaderboard for both the FPO and MPO fields. While the day started with constant rain for the FPO, the MPO saw slightly better conditions and the first double-digit round of the tournament.

The 2023 DGPT - Music City Open kicked off with a cold, windy round at Mill Ridge Park, but that wasn’t enough to keep the top players in the FPO and MPO fields from drumming up some solid scores in the opening round.
This might sound like a broken record, but Kristin Tattar leads the FPO after one round and the MPO field found themselves in a logjam at the top of the leaderboard.
The Music City Open was first held in 2010 and was on the PDGA National Tour in 2021. In 2022, the MCO was a Silver Series event and now returns as the fourth Elite Series event of the 2023 season.
While the Open at Austin provided a unique challenge for the MPO and FPO fields as they competed on a brand new course, players returning to Mill Ridge Park for the 2023 MCO will be familiar with many of its holes.
