Quarry Park Open 2022
The 2023 Quarry Park Open was held on 8-9th July
The BDGA Tour was set for an exciting climax at the 10th and final event at Burnlaw in Northumberland on 29-30th September. Derek Robins, Jester Wilson and Dan Ryan knew that if they won at Burnlaw, they would win the Tour, but course pro Chris O’Brien and defending Burnlaw Champion Neil Webber also fancied their chances of winning the event, and a win for either of them would hand the tour title to Wilson. With high winds forecast fo r the weekend, any loss of nerve, or tentative shot-making, was likely to be cruelly exposed, and thus the scene was set for exciting golf...
What a great weekend of disc golf! We had 59 players taking part, including all the top players on the BDGA Tour, right through to some with only a few months experience. Conditions were perfect: dry and bright but with enough wind to make things really challenging on the tough "Black" course layout.
In the Open division, there was a great deal at stake as this was also the penultimate event in the closely contested British Tour. QP's Neil Webber made the best start and after 2 rounds he lead by 1 shot from Derek Robins and Jester Wilson, with Dan Ryan 2 shots further back.
The 34th British Open Championship in disc golf was won by Dan Ryan, originally from California, but now based in London. Dan started the day 4 shots behind local course pro Derek Robins, but gained 3 shots in the 3rd round on Sunday morning.
After more than 2 years in production, a flying disc documentary film called "The Invisible String" will have it's world premiere in Berlin on Sunday. You can see the trailer for it on youtube, and if you look at the closing credits you will see the Quarry Park logo, we are proud to support this project.
Quarry Park has just turned 18 years old this month. It's incredible how quickly the time has passed and how much the course has matured. Where there was once bare pasture there are now established trees and shrubs, with the tallest reaching over 25m, in the woodland by the river. Every year we try to enhance the course, and improve the experience for our visitors. Back in 1994, I'm sure many people thought I was crazy to sink my savings into a sport that hardly anybody had heard of, but over the last 5 or 6 years the course has become really well established with thousands of people visiting each year. I'd like to say "Thank you" to everybody who has helped and encouraged me over the years, and to all the visitors whose fees have enabled me to make the improvements each year.
