Disc Golf World Championships, 2009

The worldwide tournament that will decide the top men's and women's Frisbee golf players is to be held in Kansas City this year, and even for those not overly familiar with the sport, it's a rare opportunity to see some athletes at the top of the game compete up close. The spectator side of the events is free and relatively casual — typical sport spectating etiquette applies.
