King and Heimburg Shine at the 2024 Ledgestone Open
Pair of Podiums for Team Innova
Elite+ means more rounds, more pressure, higher stakes, and bigger payouts. Team Innova’s Hailey King and Calvin Heimburg both rose to the occasion to make the podium at the 2024 Ledgestone Open. Hailey made an impressive comeback to finish in a tie for 2nd place in FPO. Vinny played consistently through four rounds to tie for 3rd in MPO. Ohn Scoggins and Kevin Jones also delivered standout performances, both securing 5th place.

King’s Comeback
After a slow first day that left her in a tie for 21st place, Hailey King battled all the way back into a tie for 2nd place. She shot hot -8s in both the 2nd and 3rd rounds and then came out on fire in the first holes of the final round. She was 2nd in Parked percentage, C1 Hits in Regulation, and Strokes Gained Tee to Green. Hailey also took 2nd place earlier this season at the 2024 DDO. She is knocking on the door of a win with Worlds just two weeks away.

Back in the States, Back on the Podium
After a so-so stretch in Europe, Calvin Heimburg is back on a Disc Golf Pro Tour podium. He tied for 3rd place at the 2024 Ledgestone Open, marking his 5th DGPT podium of the season including two wins. Vinny led the field in C1 Hits in Regulation and Strokes Gained Tee to Green. He was also 2nd in C2 Hits in Regulation. Calvin currently sits in 4th in the DGPT World Standings for the 2024 season. He is the highest-rated player without a Major win and both Worlds and the 2024 USDGC will give him great opportunities to earn his first.
