The Disc Golf Tour Down Under is excited to announce the second wave of feature player signings for the 2025 season! The lineup includes the current World #4, the 5th highest-rated player on the planet, and a rising star primed for a breakout year.
The latest announcement began with the signing of rising star Braeden Sides, currently ranked World #82. After completing his first full season on the Disc Golf Pro Tour, Braeden is gaining recognition with top-10 finishes at Texas States and a lead card appearance at the Des Moines Challenge. Known for his effortless power and precise fairway driver control, Braeden is eager to kick off his 2025 season in New Zealand this January.
The excitement rose to new heights with one of TDU's biggest announcements to date: Ezra Robinson, World #11 and the 5th highest-rated player in the world, is joining the 2025 season. In 2024, Ezra earned several podium finishes, including 3rd place at the Disc Golf Pro Tour Championship and the PDGA Champions Cup. He also claimed victory at the 2023 Jim Palmeri’s 50th American Flying Disc Open and is set to capture his first Elite Series title in 2025. Ezra is ready to light up New Zealand’s fairways and start his season with a bang.
Capping off this thrilling week of signings is World #4 Holyn Handley, one of the most electrifying talents in the sport. Since joining the PDGA in 2020, Holyn’s rapid rise to the top has been nothing short of remarkable.
