Hailey King Earns 2nd at DGLO
DGPT Enters the Home Stretch
Team Innova had a strong showing at the 2024 Discraft Great Lakes Open. Hailey King took 2nd place, tying the hot round on the final day. Ohn Scoggins came out on fire in round one and Kat Mertsch took the reins in round two. With DGLO behind us, it’s just Playoff events and the Championship from here on out. Get your popcorn ready.
King of the Throwing Stats
Hailey King earned her third 2nd place finish of the year at last weekend’s Discraft Great Lakes Open. She led the field in Parked percentage, C2 Hits in Regulation, and Strokes Gained Tee to Green. Hailey tied the hot final round at -7, but couldn’t gain ground on the winner, Holyn Handley.

Hailey averaged 992-rated for the event. In the September ratings update, she reached a new career-high rating of 980. Hailey has been knocking on the door of a win all season – with her performances at DGLO giving her confidence, hopefully she can take down one of the big ones at the end of the year.
