Meet the Pros: Patrick Moynihan

It’s that special time again …. we’re back with FLX Tour’s Meet the Pros!

We’re excited to bring you this one today because we had the pleasure of chatting with none other than Patrick Moynihan. The youngest Moynihan brother is making waves on the FLX Tour in 2023, highlighed by his recent victory at the Genesee Invitational where a few clutch holes helped push his team to the top of the podium. He’s currently ranked No. 8 in the competitive Young Man of the Year rankings, but the ink is not yet dry my friend!

While disc golf might be his preferred 18 hole experience, this nice young man has showed committment to the grind and demonstrated great strides on the links this season. The sky is the limit for this chipper snapper, and with his named etched forever in FLX Tour history, god only knows where he’s going to go next. Let’s get to know Pat!
