In a stunning announcement with under two weeks until the start of the 2023 season, Gannon Buhr announced on his Instagram that he is leaving Team Prodigy.

“Having been on Team Prodigy these past six years, I’ve accomplished a lot,” he said. “From my first Junior World championship win in 2017 to winning the 2022 United States Disc Golf Championship, I’ve grown a lot as a player and as a person. And after a lot of thought, I’ve made the difficult decision to leave Team Prodigy.”

Rumors had swirled around Buhr’s departure earlier in the offseason, but Prodigy’s announcement of Buhr as a part of their sponsored team last month seemed to put those rumors to bed. But the most promising young player in MPO is now on the move.

His new sponsor has not yet been announced.
