Our hope is these rankings inform fantasy disc golf participants as well as entertain fans of the pro tour.
First published: 5:45 am on Tues. May 27th (full list of 45)
Last updated: 1:30 am on Wed. May 28th (reflect Austin Turner dropping from event)
Last checked: 1:15 am on Thur. May 29th (no changes since last updated).
Event results added: Mon. June 9th (first time we ever got 20% on spot on picks for MPO, with over 50% semi close or better, and no picks that were way off).
Simplicity
The event predictions are truly meant to be viewed as simple list, depicting projected order they’ll finish from 1 through 45, along with their AF latest ranking (updated earlier this week), then player name, rating, and actual place they end up at the 2025 Northwest Disc Golf Championship tournament.
Our 2024 season goals aimed for 20% accuracy with correct predictions, and 45% accuracy for guesses that are within a tier of being correct. For early 2025, we are sticking to this.
Meets Nuances
Color in the list explains other relevant information that added columns might make rather boring. This includes tier the player current resides, historical performance at the event, and player value relative to their rating and ranking for the event. After the event, in the actual place column, we use color to depict how close or well off our predictions were. For more details on color, please see our Event Rankings Guide.
As for the Rest
Our approach is to track and rank all fantasy relevant players. Of the 60 or so MPO in the field that are playing, but not part of our list, there are 3 types of player in that mix. Some are ones we rank who are outside top 45, and saved as a sort of waiting list in case others on the list drop from the event. The 2nd type are players who we are tracking, but are not quite fantasy relevant. They could be by the next event, and we will continue to monitor them. The 3rd type are lower rated players who may surprise many and do well at the event, though typically over 4 rounds of Elite Plus level play, they tend to settle near the bottom of the standings. Our hope is to rank them someday. With that said:
