The Green Mountain Championship is one of the premier disc golf events in the world. Established in 2013, the GMC quickly rose to prominence as a favorite stop for several of the top disc golfers in the world. As the event gained high-level PDGA sanctioning, it joined the inaugural Pro Tour in 2016, serving as the final stop of the regular season and the first Tour Championship.

Playing on premier courses Brewster Ridge and Fox Run, each provides a unique track for the world’s top players. Last year saw Paul Mcbeth and Sarah Hokom bring home wins for the final stop on the 2019 Disc Golf Pro Tour. Returning again as the bookend event for the 2020 Pro Tour season, make plans to watch in-person or online September 3-6th.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 Green Mountain Championship will be CLOSED TO SPECTATORS OF ANY KIND

We are adhering to guidance from the ACCD and The State of Vermont, who stress the importance of social distancing to curb the spread of COVID-19. Smugglers’ Notch Disc Golf Center and the US Pro Tour have decided that closing the 2020 GMC to the general public is the safest course of action to protect our players, staff, and wider disc golf community.

We appreciate your understanding during these difficult times.

:thmbup:

I had reservations at Smugglers Notch State Park to camp and watch every round, since March...I was there at World's I'm 2018 and last year in 2019...love that place, in my humble opinion, the best disc golf facility in the US...two championship courses that couldn't be more different, beautiful scenery, no chain restaurants within miles, great craft beer, not too crowded, well run, etc.

I will be playing the am side in MA2. I predict that to win MA2 I'm gonna have to shoot somewhere about even, but we'll see how it goes. I spectated both lead cards last year on Brewster but this will be my first time playing in the event.

Good to see Hailey King on lead card, she played well last year. MPO lead card should be a good watch, especially on Brewster, although both other MPO feature cards should be good too.

I am really contemplating treating a trip to catch opening rounds of the GMC as a work trip. You know- to see how it's all done. For... Science!

Yep. Paradise. The Brewster is a great little pub and the food spots nearby are insanely good. I used to have an obsession with the Burger Barn before they sold to new owners- it's not the same but it's still a really good burger.

The fresh, warm frosted cinnamon bread at The Cupboard is not to be missed either fwiw. On the off days when it's warm enough to swim there are some of the jest jumping spots imaginable too. Killer brews with Lawson's, The Alchemist and Upper Pass all within shouting distance too.

The Brewster patio is a great place for Fiddleheads!

Seriously. My hardest choice at the tap these days is First Drop vs Fiddlehead. Sometimes I have to use my "phone a friend" lifeline!

Fiddlehead's disc golf specific beers are pretty awesome too, I hear the owner's got quite the private course built as well. He donated a keg of Mastermind for our Golf Biathlon and a ton of swag, can't say enough good things about that brewery.

Eagle will be an interesting story, he's playing very well this year but historically hasn't played well here. He didn't play last year and wasn't planning on playing this year, but signed up last minute. He posted on Instagram "Face your fears".
