Two world-renowned disc golfers will attempt to make a hole-in-one shot from a third-floor window of Worcester’s City Hall Tuesday evening.

Two-time European champion Simon Lizotte of Germany and former world champion Sarah Hokom will each try to make the 400-foot toss from the third-floor window into a basket on the Worcester Common.

The event, which will take place from 5 to 6 p.m., comes just days before Lizotte, Hokom and other pros will head to the MVP Open at Maple Hill Disc Golf in Leicester.

The tournament is set to take place from Aug. 30 to Sept. 1.

Maple Hill General Manager Michael Lucey and Che Anderson, project manager for the City of Worcester, hope that the event will help promote the sport throughout the region.

“I think it’s a good opportunity for us to bring new audiences not just to downtown, but to the city,” Anderson said. “It’s a bit of a crazy idea, but I think the best ideas tend to be crazy ones — the ones nobody saw as a possibility and then we make them happen.”

Disc golf is played much like golf, but instead of a ball and clubs, players use a flying disc aimed at a basket.

Attendees at Tuesday’s event will have a chance to chat with Lizotte and Hokom during the event, and even try their hand as tossing a disc.

“It’s the only professional sport I know of where you can go up to these people and talk to them literally seconds before they throw off,” Lucey said. “The interaction you have is incredible.”

Central Massachusetts is home to a number of disc golf courses, including Maple Hill and Pyramids in Leicester, Rapscallion Brewery at Hyland Orchard in Sturbridge and Newton Hill in Worcester, among others.

“We’re very lucky, but it’s always been an obscure sport, so we’re trying to get it out of that shadow,” Lucey said. “We want this hidden gem to not be hidden anymore.”
