Listen "S1E2 - Long-Running Tournaments: The Torchbearers"
Episode Synopsis
Although disc golf has developed through a few twists and turns since being established as a competitive sport, there are tournaments that have been running since before the PDGA was founded. Gabe discusses what keeps these events running longer than the sport’s governing body with three bearers of the tournament director torch: Kate Bierman (nee Schwartz) #51615 and Billy Engel #44458, the two most recent TDs of Oklahoma’s Norman Pro/Am, and Mark Horn #67, Disc Golf Hall of Fame Class of 2003, TD of California’s Wintertime Open from 1979-2018.Follow Roots of Flight on Instagram @rootsofflightdg and Twitter @rootsofflightHosted, written, and produced by Gabe LaBounty - IG: @grizzlygingerdg - Twitter: @GGDiscGolfLogo by Alyssa Ann - IG: @inkwitchlyssFind out more about the Disc Golf Hall of Fame: thediscgolfhalloffame.orgThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
