For me, when Simon is playing and playing well, disc golf seems more entertaining. Not taking away from any of the other players, I'm just saying that Simon is different. Something about his aura makes the game more fun to watch.

[@jorgiewtf]

Simon and Paul McBeth basically share the “face” of the sport right now. MVP played a 4D chess move by signing him!

[@triz313]

What a win for Simon. His power and creativity were on full display here in Michigan.

[@McDabsIt]

Such a Simon move when he throws his hands up at 6:10 😂

[@Falascoa]

That play on 16, has to go down as the baller of all baller moves.

[@bixby9797]

Simón is just so fun. His KZbinrs where he plays amateurs and local where they beat him but he takes it in stride is why he is a favorite

[@ValetteRenoux]

If anyone can guarantee that Nate and Nate will be doing the live commentary for a year, I will pay for a subscription in a heartbeat.

[@BROWNSTONEBEAR-1983]

Nothing makes me more proud and nostalgic than to see Simon smack them fans hands, making them rounds. He's like teen wolf walking through the high-school halls! Hugs, firm hand shakes and no look high fives!

[@timlanigironu]

Simon said a few days ago in a video his putting is dialed in right now and he was not joking

[@buddatello]

I was following him hole one, when I saw him put the finger up. I knew he was winning, said he was on his Sunday Simon best.

[@andrewdorsettproductions]

What a beast!

[@shrapnel77]

Simon's body language after and during round 2 held no indication of a man about to win a tournament. Complete turnaround the last two rounds.

[@Enemiesexposed]

Congrats Simon. I played 27 holes at Waller yesterday, and got 2 birdies. I hit a long thumber birdie on 5, and still finished +10-15 like always.

[@JohnnyD5]

Simon is the Tiger Woods of disc golf. Not because he wins all the time but because of how he elevates the watchability of the game.

[@illwithit.3621]

And not because of the womanizing either

[@jesscastles7120]

​@@illwithit.3621starting to look like he's not really much like Tiger Woods at all 😂

[@oncerodea300ex]

Really can’t compare a PGA player to Simon and thats why I love disc golf!

[@davidclark3952]

Agree with you 100% he’s my favorite player to watch because he is such an entertaining player.

[@kongthao5121]

If Simon play like this 5-7 yrs ago he would of won more major and elite tournament maybe 1-2 world by now.

[@oftankoftan]

there's somebody on a video, like 4 years ago, saying: "If simon played safe he'd smoke us all"

[@SeeWorldKevin]

Love to see him win, but I really love to see him joined by Eagle and Dickerson on the podium. If I had to pick my 3 favorite pros to watch by ranking, this is how they’d line up

[@bobsagetpiss]

Simon is a genius that on the fly intentionally thrown ob shot on 16. My minds blown

[@daddystinkytip]

i fucking love simon. and the biggest W goes to MVP, for securing a fucking animal in Lizotte.

[@DrewWarren]

Love seeing Simon win with MVP. Great coverage of the tournament. Boy, I have a sudden urge to shave….

[@ino5403]

Nicht nur der beste deutsche Spieler aller Zeiten

[@MisterMonsterMan]

1st ballot.

[@JasonCWhite-vg7nm]

Foot faults..?

[@kbarrett63]

Suggestion>> Super Battle Round >> an extra round at the end of a tournament for the top 4 finishers for a special bonus prize ! Each hole being sudden death until 9 holes have been played....

[@ultrainstinctdiscgolf007]

Hole 16 drone footage shows Simon hitting a tree and going out of bounce far left . He should of had a 100 footer , to bad they can't use drone footage in active play.. he got away with a easy par that could of easily been bogey

[@kevinmueller6737]

Remember, though, it's not about where his disc ends up, it's where it crossed from in-bounds to out-of-bounds. If you watch closely, he hits way up in that tall tree almost directly behind the basket. That's where he crossed the line and where he's marked. He then gets to take his relief and place his disc for his next shot. It was marked correctly, or at least to the best of their ability.

[@Finduski]

0:55 hmm?
