What a week.
I have been part of a lot of World Championships. This one was the best.

Four days at Wood Ridge Farm Brewery. Competitors from all over the World in every division, every age, every ability, standing on the same tee and chasing the same thing. World Champions were crowned. Friendships were made. And the sport looked exactly like what we built it to be.
To every athlete who made the trip to Lovingston: thank you. You brought the energy, the respect, and the bombs. Pro, amateur, Valor, adaptive, juniors to 75-plus. You are the reason this event exists.
To the families and fans who stood in the grass and sat on the picnic tables and cheered every ball: you turned a brewery range into a championship stage.

To Wood Ridge Farm Brewery and everyone on site who opened the doors and took care of our people: this does not happen without you.
To our sponsors, partners, volunteers, grid crew, scorers, officials, and the ULD team who spent the season getting people qualified and then coming to work the week like it was personal: I see you. This championship was yours as much as it was anyone’s.
And to the champions: wear it well. You earned it.
I am proud of this organization. I am proud of this sport. And I am already looking forward to the next one.

Thank you for being part of the best World Championship I have ever been a part of.
