News Summary:
The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) updated its official world rankings on June 24, 2026, noting significant shifts in the FPO top 100, including Eveliina Salonen advancing three spots to third, Iida Lehtomäki moving to 17th, Emily Weatherman climbing six spots to 21st, and Sintija Klezberga also gaining six positions. This followed Salonen's victory at the PDGA European Open in Tallinn, Estonia, on June 22, where Gannon Buhr also secured a win. The event marked a historical moment as it was the first time the PDGA Major was held outside Finland, inaugurating a rotating European Major. Earlier, on June 17, the PDGA's Medical Committee announced it was seeking new volunteer health professionals, particularly those who could advise on national policies and practices for jurisdictions outside the US. The association also invited members on June 17 to submit questions for the four candidates running for the 2026 PDGA Global Board of Directors, with a submission deadline of June 23, ahead of answers being posted on June 29 and voting beginning July 1. Previously, on June 11, the PDGA reported Dixon High School's victory at the Illinois high school state championship, held on May 30, 2026, establishing Illinois as one of ten states to host such an event.
