It’s Playoff Season!
The 2024 Green Mountain Championship kicked off a stretch of the most important tournaments of the year. The GMC and MVP Open are Disc Golf Pro Tour Playoff events, meaning 150 Pro Tour points for the winners. Points from both Playoff events count towards every touring athlete’s point total, making for big, late-season movements in the World Standings. Team Innova had 5 FPO athletes make the GMC top 10 and we led in a number of statistics.
