The Alpaca Open 2023 powered by Prodigy Disc disc golf tournament was a huge success, with 90 skilled players from 10 different countries participating in the event. The tournament was held in Austria, and the weather was very favorable for disc golf throughout the weekend. The Gold layout, which is the hardest parcours in Austria with a preliminary PAR-rating of 982, tested the skills of all the players.

The MPO division was won by Robin Binder, a Rocket Discs sponsored player, who finished the tournament with a total score of 11 under PAR. Stanislaus "the man" Amann, a Discmania sponsored player, finished just one stroke behind Binder with a course record last round of -8 (1045 rated). Florian Lingenhel, an MVP sponsored player, finished in third place with a score of -7.

The FPO division was won by Eliška Bártková, an Innova sponsored player, who celebrated a start-goal-victory with a score of +34 after a 924 PDGA-rated first round. Laura Posch finished in second place, just four strokes behind Bártková, and Andreja Bernjak finished in third place with a score of 46 over PAR.

In the MP40 division, Stefan Sonnleitner won with a score of 2 over PAR after three very consistent rounds. Otfried Derschmidt finished in second place with a score of +10, and Roland Wieland finished in third place, just five strokes behind Derschmidt.

The organizers of the event want to congratulate all the winners once again and thank all participants, visitors, and supporters of the event. Special thanks go to the sponsors Prodigy, discgolf4you.com, Kawea, Ritter Sport, Alpakahof Pentscher, and the Austrian disc golf association, as well as to all the helping hands that made this event possible, especially Manuel Oman's parents and Eric Osterwinter, who kept all players hydrated and well fed before and after their rounds!
