Well I only talked to Nikko for a second today,,, but it was enough to hear how excited he was about winning the 2009 USDGC at Winthrop University in Rock Hill South Carolina.

I got an update from Mo Higgins ( this years womens advanced world champion who was watching it on line) stating Nikko was up by 2 with 2 holes t o play and then 15 minutes later,,,,, it was confirmed,,,, Nikko held on to win his first Major championship and the largest single pay day in disc golf history of $15,000.00 plus the $2,000.00 for the NT points series and another $4,000.00 performance bonus from Gateway disc Sports. Not too shabby for a guy using Spirits, Assassins,, Blazes Wizards and his newly found love for the magic as his putter.

BOOOOOOYAAK!!!!!!!

Congrats also goes out to Josh Anthon for a scorching 53 during the final round and coming back and getting 3rd!
