2026 Discraft‘s Supreme Flight Open - MPO Final F9 Recap

Championship Sunday at Olympus brought beautiful weather after a brutal weekend of rain and fog. The lead card featured tournament leader Ricky Wysocki at 18-under, three clear of Paul McBeth at 15-under, with Kyle Klein and Chandler Kramer both lurking at 13-under. Kramer’s presence was the story before a single disc was thrown – a Monday qualifier and exclusive forehand thrower who had quietly played his way onto the Championship Sunday lead card. Gateway encouraged him to come check out the new course layout, he Monday qualified, and now here he was under the brightest lights. Commentary by Jomez.

Hole 1 | Par 3 | 347 ft | Straight uphill

Chaos from the very first throw. McBeth threw too high off the tee and found OB behind a wall of trees – “that is a disaster,” the commentators called. A full-power scramble attempt couldn’t save him, and the triple bogey on his home course was a gut punch that turned a three-shot deficit into an eight-shot hole. Wysocki yanked his drive and took a bogey of his own, a rare stumble for the tournament leader. Klein was the beneficiary, throwing a gorgeous tee shot and converting the birdie to vault into contention. Kramer played it safe with a forehand for par, his steady game keeping him out of trouble right from the start.

Results: Klein birdie | Kramer par | Wysocki bogey | McBeth triple bogey

Hole 2 | Par 4 | 785 ft | Uphill, treacherous green

McBeth needed an answer and got one. McBeth navigated the monster par 4 beautifully, getting a good skip into the green and converting the birdie to start erasing the triple bogey damage. Klein couldn’t keep the momentum going – a miscue on the treacherous green led to a bogey. Wysocki scrambled from a tough position off the tee but pulled off a great approach to save par. Kramer took the safe forehand route through the middle and walked away with par.

Results: McBeth birdie | Wysocki par | Kramer par | Klein bogey

Hole 3 | Par 4 | 540 ft | Easiest hole on the course

The easiest hole on the course delivered exactly what was expected – birdies across the board. All four players took advantage of the downhill par 4, navigating the blind uphill approach cleanly. McBeth grabbed his second consecutive birdie to pull back to one-over through three. Kramer continued to impress with his all-forehand approach, threading shots that had the commentators marveling. Wysocki and Klein also converted, keeping the leaderboard tight.

Results: All birdies

Hole 4 | Par 4 | 723 ft | Hardest hole on the course

The beast of Olympus struck again. McBeth took his third consecutive bogey on this hole across all three rounds – the commentators noting it would be “his third bogey on this one.” The hole simply had his number. Kramer produced the shot of the round, threading a forehand-forehand line through the tight window and up the hill – “you just don’t see the forehand forehand birdie on this one, that is just super good.” One of only a handful of birdies on the hole all tournament. Wysocki navigated the danger with a birdie-saving scramble and escaped with par. Klein also managed a clean par after a great drive.

Results: Kramer birdie | Wysocki par | Klein par | McBeth bogey

Hole 5 | Par 4 | 630 ft | Steep uphill green

McBeth hit the hillside perfectly to slow down his approach – “that was a shape and a half,” the commentators marveled. Birdie to continue his remarkable recovery, his third in the last four holes. Klein also found his line and converted the birdie. Wysocki had trouble off the tee with his shot heading toward danger, but the Scramble King found a way to save par. Kramer managed a clean par with his trusty forehand. McBeth had erased two of the triple bogey strokes and was back to just one-over for the round.

Results: McBeth birdie | Klein birdie | Wysocki par | Kramer par

Hole 6 | Par 3 | 320 ft | New hole, hay bales

A rare moment where the Monday qualifier outshone the legends. Kramer delivered a silky forehand putter to card the only birdie on the lead card – “par-par-par birdie, that is a shocking scorecard for our leaders,” the commentators noted, clearly impressed by the all-forehand player gaining a stroke on the entire lead card. Wysocki, McBeth, and Klein all settled for pars. Kramer was now within two of Wysocki for the lead.

Results: Kramer birdie | Wysocki par | McBeth par | Klein par

Hole 7 | Par 3 | 362 ft | Left-to-right slope, protected green

The Spanish moss was blowing and the tricky left-to-right slope demanded precision. Wysocki found his line and converted the birdie, digging deep as only Rick can. McBeth was fortunate off the tee, peppering close to a tree but getting away with it, and drained the birdie putt – his fourth of the front nine. Klein got rocked by roots after hitting the hillside with a turnover shape, and the resulting bogey was crushing. Kramer settled for par after a difficult lie. This hole has historically been a thorn in Wysocki’s side at this event – “this hole alone has cost him this title at least once” – but not today.

Results: Wysocki birdie | McBeth birdie | Kramer par | Klein bogey

Hole 8 | Par 3 | 445 ft | Beautiful turnover hole

McBeth fired a fairway driver with immediate turn that flattened beautifully – his fifth birdie of the front nine. Despite the triple bogey, he was clawing back to even par. The commentators marveled that he’d have five birdies and shoot even par – four over-par strokes and five birdies, the McBeth rollercoaster in full effect. Klein also converted the birdie, his third of the day. Wysocki scrambled from a tough approach, earning another clutch par save. Kramer played it safe for par.

Results: McBeth birdie | Klein birdie | Wysocki par | Kramer par

Hole 9 | Par 3 | 478 ft | Must carry 460 ft in the air

The bully of a closing par 3 struck again. McBeth missed his line by about five degrees and found trouble in a terrible spot. But then he produced a jaw-dropping approach shot from an impossible position that missed the basket by inches – “shot of the year if that goes in,” the commentators gasped. Despite the heroic effort, the bogey brought him back to even par for the front nine. Wysocki, Klein, and Kramer all navigated the carry successfully and walked away with pars.

Results: Wysocki par | Klein par | Kramer par | McBeth bogey

Front 9 Summary

The front nine was a tale of contrasts. McBeth had four over-par strokes and five birdies to finish at even par – an extraordinary recovery from a triple bogey that could have ended his tournament. Kramer was the class of the front nine, shooting three-under as a Monday qualifier with an all-forehand game that had the commentators shaking their heads in disbelief. Nobody integrates the forehand into their game on tour quite like Chandler Kramer.

Wysocki held steady at one-under, maintaining a three-shot lead heading into the back nine. He hadn’t won on tour in over a year, and the crowd support was palpable – they wanted to see the two-time world champion back on top. But from the chase card, Gannon Buhr was making a run, already five-under on the front nine and lurking at 15-under overall. The back nine would decide the first DGPT title of 2026.
