With two of the more memorable rollers of the season to his name, there was a good chance Simon Lizotte was going to make it to finals. Ricky Wysocki poised a real challenge, however, with his European Open stunner.

In the end, it went to the power over the finesse. Was the hole downhill? Sure. But Lizotte still put the angle down to perfection to have his disc fade right toward the pin 230 meters away to land inside the Circle. It’s unfathomable.
