With this latest victory at USDGC Nikko jumped from 3rd to 1st in the prime discs world rankings.

here there news release:

Special early edition of the Prime Discs World Rankings. With Nikko's win and Jesper's abysmal (for him) rounds at the USDGC, Nikko leap frogs Nate Doss to claim the #1 spot in the world rankings.

risk taking pays off ,,,,, to the tune of $15,000.00

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!

Good luck to all Competitors at this years USDGC

While I was looking around the usdgc website and planet disc golf I saw mention of Nikko and Matt orum.

Here is an excerpt from their site:

The Risk-Takers

The Winthrop Gold course is fraught with hazards and penalties throughout it’s nearly 9800 feet layout. Besides the lake that especially comes into play on holes 5 and 17, the USDGC staff has been quite innovative by installing thousands of feet of string around the course creating narrower fairways and hazards that the players have to consider at almost every turn. Many of the top pros will tell you that their primary objective is to avoid any OBs during the round, but that is clearly easier said than done.

Yet, many of the young guns play such a fearless brand of disc golf, they almost always will go for shots that more experienced veterans may shy away from. Nikko Locastro and Matt Orum and a growing number of others often defy conventional wisdom with their “diesel” style of disc golf. These are the players that may be generally categorized as “risk-takers.” They emanate supreme confidence and a “take no prisoners” approach to almost every shot. Indeed, their talent levels may warrant very aggressive play on most courses in America, but the Winthrop Gold challenge is a far cry from most other courses in America.

One thing we will be watching are the “risk-takers” at this year’s USDGC. It may come down to a single throw, or it may be exemplified throughout an entire round. But what will be most intriguing is whether the aggressive, risky disc golfer will be rewarded with a US Championship this year, or whether the player with one foot on the accelerator and one foot on the brake, when needed, will find their way into the winners
