The World Flying Disc Federation (WFDF), in cooperation with the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA), is releasing the world rankings for disc golf by country for the first time. World Rankings are expected to become an increasingly important tool in deciding on the inclusion of countries in multi-game sports formats in the future, as events sanctioned by the International World Games Association, World Masters Games and International Olympic Committee demand a critical and objective means for selecting teams. The WFDF Disc Golf Committee worked extensively with the PDGA in developing the ratings system.
The United States tops the rankings, followed by Canada, New Zealand, Finland, and Estonia. Rounding out the top ten are Sweden, the Czech Republic, United Kingdom, Germany, Japan. A total of 40 countries are currently ranked.
