DGPT Q-SERIES

This event is a part of the 2024 Disc Golf Pro Tour Qualifying Series (Q-Series). The Q-Series offers FPO and MPO competitors a pathway to earn a 2025 DGPT Tour Card through a series of 2024 PDGA A-tier events across the United States, ending with a finale in the Southeastern U.S. this November.

Six MPO and four FPO tour cards for the 2025 season are up for grabs, with participants earning points at Q-Series events. Points are awarded at the same scale as DGPT World Standings, with competitors' top-three finishes contributing to their total points. The finale is open to those qualifying through Q-Series points or DGPT World Standings rankings.

Winners of regular season Q-Series events will receive a silver tour card, offering partial tour access and eligibility for a future DGPT event.
