Held annually since 1982, the event crowns world champions in several divisions in the professional disc golf fields.
"All four events will run in the same host cities in 2021, with previously awarded 2021 World Championship bids moving back to 2022,"[4] announced the PDGA, citing international travel concerns, an inability to allow spectators, the member experience, and the difficulty of postponing the events as reasons for this decision.
"Rescheduling events now, with only two to three months of lead time to make these new arrangements and execute required contracts, puts a considerable strain on our partners.
Pushing these decisions out by an additional month or more, with no clear end dates on international travel restrictions, will further hinder our hosts' abilities to successfully run these events.
"[5] On December 20, 2023, PDGA announced that the upcoming 2025 world championships will be held for the first time outside of North America in Finland, in the cities of Tampere and Nokia located in the Pirkanmaa region.
