I don't care who wins but no Salonen? Figured we all agreed it was her, Missy or Kristen with great arguments for all 3. Nothing against Holyn

[@roberthoeg1964]

Totally bullshit hands down Kristin tattar should win this honor.

[@matthewbertram4312]

So Missy had 4 ES wins, a major, and the DGPT Championship (technically a 5th ES win). Kristin had 5 ES wins, a major, and Throw Pink (technically an A-tier). The big decider (and it was also the same decider when Kristin didn't win it a few seasons ago due to injury), was event totals. Missy played in 27 events, all of them tour events. Kristin only played in 18 tour events (and 2 other A-tiers). When you're only playing 2/3rds of the Tour events of your competition, it's going to be a tough sell to be the player of the year for the Tour.

[@cvikingfishing462]

between missy, evelina and Tattar it really was a toss up based on opinion because all 3 had valid reasoning, I more confused on why Evelina wasn't even a nominee.

[@lncprkns5513]

@@matthewbertram4312 Plus Missy winning the pro tour points race gave her a bump for this award.

[@matthewbertram4312]

Going to be a controversial pick. But it really was a coin flip overall. The real crime (to me) was Holyn being a finalist over Eveliina.

[@justy303]

Absolutely!

[@huunntteer]

2 time major champ, including world champ, not even a finalist?

[@eriksteup7136]

How can the world champ not the nominated?

[@dstroyer01]

Salonen is a BEAST

[@ericsynchrona5495]

DGPT is my favorite Artificial Intelligence program.

[@karenschneider7433]

Missy is one of my favorites but kristin should have won

[@susiepittman601]

Great!!

[@jonathanjobe1135]

Congrats Missy!

[@TuomoTanskanen]

Lol, what BS is this

[@DestinationThrills]

Trying to understand the logic of choosing Isaac Robinson over Calvin as a finalist on the MPO side but Holyn over Eveliina on THE FPO side.

[@TDub777]

This is the DGPT. There is no logic. It's just whatever vibe they want to put out there. It's more feeling than anything.

[@margusmagi6703]

Disc golf is and remains US-business. So, who ever is gonna be declared for the player of the year, it is decided by rules made in USA. Sorry to say that!

[@aylarue1536]

Way to go, Gah-uh-ah-ly Gannon!

[@nolanfulton6112]

Tat…..

[@DiscForLife]

Great win for a great woman.

[@POWORDISC]

🎉🎉🎉

[@tfilipow7]

Way to go Missy!

[@justy303]

BS, but gratz to Missy
