What a weekend. The Green Man Challenge 2026 is officially in the books, and once again it delivered everything we love about this event and more.
With a fully sold-out field, beautiful spring conditions, and the iconic temporary layout in Hofstade, the stage was set for a special two days of disc golf. From the very first tee shots on Saturday, the energy was there. Players brought not only their best game, but also the spirit and sportsmanship that define this tournament.
The Green Man Challenge continues to stand out thanks to its unique and demanding course. Tight lines, smart risk-reward decisions, and creative shot shaping were required all weekend long. It is the kind of layout that challenges every aspect of your game and leaves a lasting impression.
Across all divisions, the level of play was impressive. Lead cards battled it out until the very end, while every card on the course added to the atmosphere. Big putts, clutch moments, and personal victories were everywhere. Still, what makes this event truly special goes beyond the scores. It is about the community that comes together to make it happen.
The 2026 edition crowned a strong lineup of winners across all divisions. In MPO, Rienk Kan took the victory, while Fleur Verberk secured the win in FPO. Jean-Louis Tanghe came out on top in MP40. In the amateur divisions, Tobias Hencsei won RAD, Tom Jentink claimed RAE, Christophe Bloem took RAF, and Ruben Vugs completed the list with the win in RAG. An impressive group of champions who truly earned their titles on a demanding Green Man layout.

Relive the best moments in the aftermovie:
Behind the scenes, an incredible amount of work went into making this edition a success. From building and removing the temporary course to running tournament central, preparing food and drinks, spotting, announcing, and everything in between, this event simply would not exist without the dedication of so many people.
The tournament director shared how rewarding it was to see everyone enjoying the event, and emphasized how much the volunteers and club members mean to making it all possible. The enthusiasm, support, and willingness to step in and help are what turn a great tournament into something truly memorable.
A huge thank you to everyone who played, helped, supported, or simply came by to enjoy the atmosphere. You are the reason the Green Man Challenge keeps growing year after year.
We are already looking forward to the next edition. Until then, time to relive the memories and maybe get back out on the course soon.
See you out there!
