Estonian disc golf star Kristin Tattar leads on day one at Smuggler's Notch
Estonian disc golf star Kristin Tattar is in the lead after day one of the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) Green Mountain Championship event at Smuggler's Notch in Jeffersonville, Vermont.
After finishing the first twelve holes on four under par, Tatar could only manage a bogey on the thirteenth. However, the Estonian powered back to hit another four under par in the last seven holes, finishing the day on -7.
Two shots behind Tattar is Ohn Scoggins of the USA, who started out with four birdies in a row, before hitting three bogeys on the next four holes
