A Look at the Past

Before establishing a consistent four majors, several players still managed to etch their names into the annals of disc golf history by dominating the available major tournaments in a single season. Juliana Korver (1999 World Championship & Women’s National Championship) and Des Reading (2002 World Championship and USWDGC) have swept the majors in a single season. It is likely, had there been four majors they would have won them all that year. Valerie Jenkins came close in 2008 when she won the World Championship, Japan Open, Scandinavian Open, and Players Cup. She did not complete the sweep and she lost USWDGC Angela Tschiggfrie. These talented women have accomplishments that laid the foundation for the sport’s competitive spirit and high standards, inspiring emerging talents to strive for more.
