Isaac was as classy as he always is. The interviews were pretty neutral.
But if he wanted to use his victory speech to recite a sermon, he absolutely could have. He won the world championships--he can say whatever he wants.
A few observations from an interesting round...
Eagle is absolutely annihilating his drives. Super fun to watch. He eagled hole 2, had a 40' eagle putt (pin-high left) on another par 4, and was in great position to attack for eagle again on the par 5. But WOW is he giving away a lot of...
"Excited to see Simon throw MVP discs like the Crave, Hex, Envy, and Proxy"
Crave- Axiom
Hex- Axiom
Envy- Axiom
Proxy- Axiom
Interesting that all of MVP's best molds seem to belong to Axiom. When does Axiom decide to start sponsoring people?
...and I'm going to disagree with that. You throw a hyzer poorly, you miss by 10'. That's what makes it such a great option on shots like the one Paige had.

An Epic
Signature hole after signature hole.
Tremendous elevation gain, with several platform shots
3 300'+ water carries.
A few open bombers mixed into the heavily wooded scenery.
The course has basically every type of hole you could think of.
The park itself is beautiful, equipment is in...
A hyzer, if the hole allows it, is 100% the most accurate and consistent type of shot. To paraphrase Omar Little, "Even if you miss you can't miss."
I remember watching 2021 worlds as it was happening, and when I saw Paige was going straight at the pin instead of a stock Zone approach, I...
"I understand we can't absolve Josh completely here, but it's flat-out wrong to suggest it was 100% his fault and force him to take 100% of the blame. The other guy could have just as easily gotten out of the way (dodging either left or right would have worked!) but instead chose to stand...
What a truly ridiculous win for Eagle.
I know it has been said, but his first week back? Without his most dependable shot his forehand, not even for routine pitchouts? Then you have to beat the GOAT, who is going to average 1072ish golf over four rounds? AND that same supremely-confident...
Has to be a suspension. Just has to.
Disc golf is supposed to be a self-policing sport, but the whole system falls apart if you're allowed to intimidate and threaten the people who try to enforce the rules. The fact that Nikko was willing to do this to a rules official...on camera...in front...

Two season course
-The land is excellent for a disc golf course. Vast, scenic, hilly, wooded, etc.
-Not played very much. It is not at all uncommon to have the place to yourself.
-Requires a tremendous variety of shots, and lefties in particulr will like it.
-No simple 2s from the long tees...
When Hailey is on, she looks like she should be #1 in the world. Elite distance BH and FH and can make putts from anywhere. I'm not sure anyone has more tools than she does. For her not to even be in the top ten (world ranking) is crazy.
I wouldn't even say Ohn is "one of" the best putters in FPO..she's been far and away the best this year. She's at 83/28 C1/C2, first place by a large margin in both categories. Calvin Heimburg, by comparison, is 84/26.

Don't throw any disc you aren't prepared to lose
-The holes themselves are actually designed pretty well.
-relatively challenging. Par is a good score here
Not maintained at all. Very, very hard to play a full round here without losing a disc.
Overgrown to the point that there are no lines on...
