Stockton mattered on the DGPT schedule because the tour marked the 2026 OTB Open as a return to the city and its debut as a DGPT+ event. The main event was set for May 21-24 at Swenson Park Disc Golf Course in Stockton, California, with the official branding reading 2026 OTB Open presented by MVP Disc Sports.

That upgrade changed the tone around the stop before the first disc was thrown. DGPT+ status put the OTB Open among the tour’s higher-profile dates, the kind that can shape points, confidence, and momentum heading deeper into the season. Stockton has already become a familiar host city in disc golf, and the return to Swenson Park gave the tour a course that can reward length, control, and putting under pressure rather than a single specialty skill.

The schedule in Stockton stretched beyond the pro field. The OTB Open amateur weekend was listed separately for May 15-17, 2026, creating a full week of disc golf activity in the city before the DGPT cards teed off. Hosted by 1000 Rated Productions, the amateur A-tier sat alongside the pro event as part of the same broader OTB Open footprint.

The event page pushed that ecosystem further, linking out to the DGPT event page, the PDGA event page, amateur weekend details, disc recovery, volunteers, and sponsorship and vending information, along with local Stockton information. That structure turned the OTB Open into more than a weekend tournament at a single venue. It functioned as a full event hub built around Swenson Park and the surrounding city.

The venue listing itself was concrete: Swenson Park Disc Golf Course, 6803 Alexandria Pl, Stockton 95207. UDisc also maintained a dedicated course page for Swenson Park - OTB Open, underscoring how established the course has become within the competitive circuit.

For the DGPT, Stockton was not just another stop on the West Coast swing. The tour’s own return language and the DGPT+ designation made the OTB Open a marker event, one that linked an established disc golf market with a more prominent competition tier. In a season packed with travel, the kind of stop that draws a strong field and a clear operational push often ends up carrying more weight than its date on the calendar suggests.
