Paige Pierce is an American professional disc golfer from Plano, Texas. She is a four-time World Champion, and has been consistently ranked in the top four professional women between 2011 and 2016.
Pierce began playing disc golf at the age of 4 with her father and his friends. She went professional in 2009, and caught the attention of Phil Arthur, who became her coach and later sponsor after he helped launch Prodigy Discs.
After winning the US Women's Disc Golf Championship in 2014, Pierce made history by becoming the first female to ever win the USDGC in the Performance Flight division. She narrowly missed qualifying for the Open division in 2015, missing a playoff for the fifth qualifying spot by two strokes.
In addition to Pierce's four World Championships, she also holds two Mixed Doubles World Championships, both with teammate Jeremy Koling.
