The fifth annual Vibram Open, the crowning event of the Pro Disc Golf National Tour, had a purse of $55,000 — the highest paid event on tour. One of the fastest-growing sports in America, disc golf is similar to tradi- tional golf in that strokes are counted and the lowest score wins. However, golfers use discs of different weights, throwing them from a tee area to the bas- ket, which serves as the “hole.” Some of the world’s top disc golfers, including Ken Climo, Nate Doss, Nikko Locastro, Dave Feldberg, Will Schusterick, Cale Leiviska, Valarie Jenkins, Paige Pierce, Sarah Stanhope, Sarah Hokom and Catrina Allen were all on hand for the Vibram Open.
