The final cast of the 2015 PKC World Championship has just pulled out of the Marion County Fairgrounds in Salem, Illinois. After a short fifteen minute drive we should be bringing you some exciting action.
...
Our youngest competitor tonight is Dustin Weed of Prairie, Mississippi. Dustin has previously won the Super Stakes Championship and the PKC National Championship. His PKC Lifetime Earnings are $115,592.

The most seasoned handler going out on the final is Doug Jackson of New Paris, Ohio. Doug has been in the PKC World Final a few times before, but first place has eluded him. Doug and his brother Junior dominated the PKC Blue Ribbon Pro Race for many years. Doug's PKC Lifetime earnings are $82,821.

Eric Henry of Clubb, Missouri has previously won the PKC National Championship and has accumulated PKC Lifetime earnings of $51,267.
