Pretty soon I'll be able to pick 2 winners in my pick six that are of the "stronger" gender. Lmao
I was exclusively a mens disc golf viewer but recent started watching the ladies play for more content, but I refuse to watch this woke garbage, I refuse to watch everyone dance around one person and give preferential treatment like its ok.. we just went through the Lia Thomas debacle… society has had enough of this crap.
Just came to have my comment deleted
You talked just long enough Paige. Congrats, love to see your win and wow girl, your speech. I am teary eyed hearing it. So beautiful. Yes, live for those moments. I'm so happy for you and I appreciate all you share on your instagram and Alyssa as well. Such inspiring content. I'm just a stranger on the internet but you have inspired me a great deal. So thank you. That may sound silly but oh well. Thank you. And thank you to Alyssa as well. And thanks GK pro for covering the women's events.
Paige you are an inspiration regardless of the up and downs…your speeches lately is touching. Keep doing you and showing everyone what they are capable of. Much love.
FPO is turning into the new MPO
Let’s talk about the real issue here. The trophy as a disc. I hope there is more then just the disc lol
Is it me or are there a lot of dudes upset about a trans athlete competing? It seems like every comment complaining about the 'woke' disc golf culture or how bad they feel for the women competing in the event. How brave of you! I'm sure women everywhere are very appreciative of your unsolicited 'support' for their rights.
Thanks for the coverage
I love you Paige
Nice to see Missy on the lead card again as well as the other ladies. Jennifer having a good year so far also. Juliana grabbing a podium spot from the chase card. Thanks for the coverage GKPro. Nice job Erika and Raven. Hope you're on the mend, Madison. Honk!
We have age protected divisions. Age as a distinction for division is actually quite arbitrary. Why 40 instead of 35? Or 39? Or 42? A 20 year old could not simply identify as a 60 year old man and play in MP60….
“But I’ve been drinking Ensure and using Bengay for 2 years. I should totally compete in MP60.”
This is all a joke. And the fact that it’s even happening is Ludicrous.
It takes a man to make the FPO interesting.
Ryan is NOT a woman and shouldn't be in FPO.
Congrats to Paige on her win! Fun round.
I support Natalie and all trans athletes!
Hole 1: 30-40 feet further drive. Only birdie on the hole
Hole 3: 30-40 feet further drive.
Hole 4: longest drive by far.
Hole 5: 2nd longest drive to Paige, but chose to throw much more hyzer route to have a cleaner approach.
Hole 6: throwing what appears to be a fairway driver on a hole requiring finesse and accuracy. Gannon threw a Zeus. Not sure about the others but they looked driver to me.
Hole8: longest drive
Hole 9: CTP
Hole 10: longest drive
Hole 11: 2nd longest drive to Paige. (Barely shorter)
Hole 12: ctp
Hole 13: ctp
Hole 14: ctp. Also looks like throwing slower speed disc than everyone else.
Hole 15: crush. Turns the cameraman around. Almost runs into the chase card….. only one to birdie the hole.
17&18: double bogey. Hits trees.
11/18 longest drives. 2 drives on 17&18 were early tree hits otherwise they probably would’ve been the farthest based on how the previous holes turned out. Only outdriven 2/3 times and one was by choice. The other 2 times, the trans woman was the 2nd longest drive. Pierce never outdrove the trans woman by the same distance that she was being outdriven throughout the whole round.
I see a distance advantage.
Also, you say it’s not like they are dominating? 2 in the top 5 in this tournament.
we’re already seeing domination in woman’s college national championships swimming. Track, wrestling, weight lifting etc etc.
It’s not transphobic to assume that this leads to woman’s sports being dominated by trans, thus altogether eliminating woman’s sports. It’s an opinion, On a public forum. Nothing I’ve said is hateful. I’ve just written down what happened in this round. My estimates of distance could be wrong.
In fact, nothing I’ve written here can be disputed. Anyone who watches the round can see it. Anyone who looks at trans woman in those other sports winning can see it there as well.

Another soap box rant from a pro athlete. After a match with a man that thinks he’s a woman.
It’s 2022 alright.
Thanks for the coverage! What a finish!
He will never pass.
i know im not the only one who was so glad to see paige win, if natalie won, the controversy would be at another level. biological males have faster twitch muscles, more strength, more speed, pretty much advantages across the whole body when it comes to sport, and paige still represented the fpo and kept natalie at bay, pretty awesome, way to go paige. trans people are simply fellow human beings who just fall into a tiny percentage of the population, there is nothing wrong with being trans, literally nothing. but in sport there is division, and the division is to keep things equal. we divide ma3 ma2 ma1 and mpo based on ratings. we divide mpo and fpo based on biological sex, not gender preference, but biological sex. i am not sure why sports are not sticking to this division which is there to keep things equal for men and women. there is no discrimination involved when you go purely based on biological sex. when a trans person says "i was born this way" that is correct, they were born with both their biological body and their gender fluid preferences. a male biological body should not be competing with an entire division of female biological bodies, it does not make sense. just because a biological male has a female outlook on life and is mentally a female, that does not change the body therefore should not be able to cross divisions. the divisions should be purely based on the body, it's not discrimination, it just is what it is. if you are born a biological male as a baby you play mpo, if you are born a biological female as a baby you play fpo. babies are not conscious enough to transition genders. natalie has every right in the world to transition genders, but she cannot change her biological sex that took place at birth. she has every right to compete in mpo based on biological sex, and would be referred to as she, but it is just not right to see a biological male compete in a field of biological females and call it fair, it isn't fair, it would be fair if natalie competed with biological males. ask yourself this, why is there mens golf and womens golf, why is there mens tennis womens tennis, why is there mens swimming womens swimming, why is there mens soccer and womens soccer, why is there mens basketball and womens basketball, its because it is meant to keep competition fair and equal. imagine if there weren't divisions and madison walker and to compete against anthony barela, there then would be no madison walker, she would be an amatuer and have no career, but no, we are smart enough to realize that division in biological sex makes things EQUAL. so why break this division based on someones gender preference mentally. natalie may be a full fledge female mentally and in her heart, but the body is not female, her spirit is female her energy may be female, but the body is not. there is zero hate in this post, it is just objective reality that people get weird about now for some reason.
35:26 mark paige grabs the most pathetic trophy in tournament history and just throws in on the ground lol
i am amazed to see how many likes are on the comments fighting for fpo equality and not having biological males compete against biological females. it is almost as if we are the woke ones fighting for fpo equality not letting an entire division be tainted with someone of a different biological sex. i am not talking about gender, she identifies as female and that is fine, but the reason it is called fpo and mpo divisions is because there is a division amongst biological sex, and natalie is a biological male, making money off these biological females, and it isn't right, and the likes on comments like this show the community vastly agrees
As disc golf is quickly growing, there’s a large following within the comments that are actively trying to stop the growth. Your opinions are valid, but realize you could be stunting the growth of our sport.
Paige is the goat!!!
that trophy is so depressing lmao
