Quite! He really seems to embody the patience, calmness, and flow that the Japanese are known for... It's cool to see differences in culture mirrored in the physical aspects of the players. As the game progresses, it will be neat to see more high level performance from different pockets of the world
Wow. Just wow. Well, Eagle's time will come, I am sure - and he did an amazing job, pushing Ricky to the limit, so three cheers for both of them, I say. Great job by Avery to compete and commentate, and still make 10th. That course is just brutal. It would break me. Thanks Jamie, and thanks as always, to SpinTV, and Jomez Productions!
My pleasure Tai Lopez. How do you throw such a beautiful hyzer, when your approach is like and epileptic seizure? Seriously though I'm a big fan, love the Vlogs. Really bummed about Eagle he's my favorite.
So heartbreaking to watch Eagle's last two holes. I can't wait for this kid to just EXPLODE and take the sport like McBeth in 2015. A Grand Slam is in Eagle's young future.
So refreshing to have Jamie back on the commentary. I appreciate AJ's insight to the game but he just talks so much. It's nice to have some silence during player's shots.
This was super fun to watch! Talk about a high level...holy moly! I know "there can be only one" but the way Rick and Eagle played? Well, there's gonna be *some* flingin' to watch in 2017! It's a tough two, but much congrats Eagle as well as to Rick. Played mighty. And thanks for the vid, SpinTV and for all involved in getting these posted!
Amazing golf! Im not even playing and my nerves are shot and im on the edge of my seat for this first major! Way to go guys! Awesome golf and amazing start to the 2017 season!
Absolutely great coverage, loved every second of it, would like to see the relationship of who lands where off the drives to gain a perspective of who drives what and where it lands, thanks!!!!
Bring back Barsby!! But dang what a round. Eagle showed his age here, but if anything, it just shows he is going to dominate this sport very soon considering how young he is.
Man, I was really rooting for Eagle, and I'm a big fan of Rick's too, but for whatever reason I wanted to see Eagle take it. So close! Thanks for the coverage.
What a sick and ridiculously cool round by Eagle having the reigning World Champ at his back for four rounds and fighting him off again and again in that fourth round just to ... get the jitters in the end. Maaaaaan.....
I'm a Team Trilogy player, and a huge Ricky fan, but OMG! I knew that would be hard to watch, but that was way harder to watch then I thought. I can't even imagine.
that was heartbreaking..... but yea the winner deserves it... does anyone know if manabu throws lightweight discs outside of japan or if he throws normal discs?
I'd assume that he uses ligh weights outside of Japan too. He has used light weights his whole career and since there are no weight restrictions outside of Japan it's unlikely that he'd switch
No beastmode in Aussie, except that great par 5 eagle.. . After his injury last year he's been struggling a bit, I think. Not in the level of Ricky and Eagle right now but hope he bounces back quickly. Fun to see if Simon can get in the mix this year.. .
was cheering for rick the whole time! what a great tournament i dont think it can get any more exciting then this..clutch mcbeast..eagle just comes off like a spoiled cocky kid but we were all there once! gonna have an amazing career thats for sure
I feel like Jamie congratulating Ricky on his SpinTV debut was a spoiler. Good thing I was able to live in disbelief, there-to-fore Eagle's uncanny undoing.
Sean Kitchin Exactly, so why congratulate him? why not "thank" him, or say "glad to have him in the booth". 0:34 I could be picking on Jamie, but I still think it was a weird choice of words.
Get some sleep, eat 'yer wheaties and come back with force. You crushed it this week and it was a DG highlight to watch you play. Mr. Heichel can keep his opinion, that par save of 17 was downright inspiring. Ricky won, you did not lose.
You're still the man Eagle! I get excited just thinking what all you can achieve in the next five years. I have no doubt you'll break through and finish these guys off one day, I'm guessing it'll be sooner rather than later.
Wow Eagle and Mcbeast can get it out there. Amazing. And Wysocki has got to have the best forehand in history of game. Can he hit 500ft. with it ?? Anyway thanks for the great coverage , guys !! :)
does it not look like Ricky just puts into a bigger basket than anyone else... he doesn't even seem to be looking half the time on the shorter putts... like he is checking his watch or phone while he is getting ready to throw and then checking out what looks like a quarter on the ground as he is throwing. it is amazing
If this doesn't ignite the fire inside the belly of the beast that is Eagle McMahon, than nothing will. The kid has all the raw talent in the world... such a shame he couldn't pull this one out. He will be a better player because of it though.
Codie Lowell The next event SpinTV will cover is the Gentleman's Club Challenge Presented By Innova - Feb 23-26. I'll have coverage information to post pretty soon so stay tuned to our Facebook and IG.
Incredible final round, so much fun to watch. Yes I feel bad for the kid (yes he's a great talent, definitely) but Ricky threw -16 in the final round. So he earned and deserved that win 100% Thanks Spin, Jomez, Avery, Jamie and all the commentators, great coverage as usual.. . But why just Thomas in the final round? There wasn't anybody available or Jamie just prefers that way?
Just kinda how it played out. I'm in California (I didn't go down under). Typically I do the final rounds for these events because the crew and staff for the event are breaking down/packing/traveling - just going through the wrap up phase. I personally prefer a two-person commentary team, just didn't work out this time for that to happen. We like to experiment with different things, I don't think we've found our final form yet :)
Ok, that makes sense (wrap up phase and spins fast uploads). And Jamie with or without partner, always a professional job. Looking forward to the rest of the season.. .
One thing that spoils the round is that when someone is putting and they are going to chain it, you put the "XXX for birdie" -box. And when they are going to miss the putt you dont put the box
Everyone get off Eagles back. He made so many clutch putts and amazing shots. Thank you for being awesome Eagle. You made one bad shot. Big whoop. We have all done that. Keep being you young man.
I have faith that Eagle, with time, will soon catch on and win major events, and have clenched victories under his belt. He is a bit young and underexperienced compared to others like Ricky Wysocki and Simon Lizotte, but he has time. I think things will improve BIG TIME for him though, starting this season. This event certainly proves he runs to close contention and challenges some of the best pros though.
Uuuugghh. That hurt to watch. I really wanted the kid to win his first. With more experience he'll learn to control those nerves. He's def becoming one of my favorite players.
Man my heart sunk for Eagle. The kid tries so damn hard. One day, he will get them wins he finally deserves. Absolutely killer shooting by Ricky though, great battle and entertainment.
poor timing on the commercial after 17! The tension was at its PEAK! Man gotta feel for eagle, he had kept it together for so long. Could see the loss coming with the slomo shots of him being nervous.
Tom Shufflebottom Fitness yep, I meant to say "4 majors in the last 4 years." You're correct he didn't win in 2015 because Paul completed the grand slam, but he won 2 last year (worlds and EO).
ahh eagle why bud why good try and I'm happy that Ricky comes out on top great tourney well played by all my favorite highlight was Paul's huge put for eagle !!
I can't believe Eagle at the end! He went all this time to let his nerves mess up a 300ft drive! Damn!
Really enjoy watching Manabu's form. so smooth
Quite! He really seems to embody the patience, calmness, and flow that the Japanese are known for... It's cool to see differences in culture mirrored in the physical aspects of the players. As the game progresses, it will be neat to see more high level performance from different pockets of the world
Ricky just has it fully. Guy is a machine. Spin TV keep it coming
loved Pauls positive reinforcement to Manabu
Manabu seems awesome to play with. I like seeing new faces on DG channels. Paul always is a class act.
Wow. Just wow. Well, Eagle's time will come, I am sure - and he did an amazing job, pushing Ricky to the limit, so three cheers for both of them, I say. Great job by Avery to compete and commentate, and still make 10th. That course is just brutal. It would break me. Thanks Jamie, and thanks as always, to SpinTV, and Jomez Productions!
That eagle putt by paul tho...
that putt on 17 was big time this kid is going to be fun to watch for years to come
This was INTENSE!!!! Kaji & Paul were fun to watch. The showdown between Ricky & The Kid was classic. Spin TV's coverage has been outstanding!
Thanks for the coverage. It had to be extremely difficult logistically, from our end, we're extremely grateful. Thank you, thank you!
Manabu... loved him in the Ocean movies.
Thank you for this. Thank you!
My pleasure Tai Lopez. How do you throw such a beautiful hyzer, when your approach is like and epileptic seizure? Seriously though I'm a big fan, love the Vlogs. Really bummed about Eagle he's my favorite.
Where the fuck you been?
Martin Villela Haha! Homie, you took my line! My younger brother and I use that line on one another often! It's classic!
Haha I know it's unorthodox but it works.
Can we always just have Jamie and Avery commentating? Every round of every tourney? So easy to listen and follow
finally... lol thanks for all the time and effort put in!
Heartbreaking for the kid......but he will win so many majors in his career. Congrats to Ricky.....that dude is on fire right now
Thanks for getting these up!!! Much enjoyed!!!
yes thank you , I scoured looking for the next 9
Awesome job guys....SOCKIBOMB!
The drama!!!!!! I love going back and re-watching these tourneys from when I first got into disc golf.
So heartbreaking to watch Eagle's last two holes. I can't wait for this kid to just EXPLODE and take the sport like McBeth in 2015. A Grand Slam is in Eagle's young future.
this is the highest level of playing i ever seen! just mindblowing
great play by everyone. thanks spintv for the coverage. for those of us in the midwest 105 degree heat doesn't sound that bad right about now.
So refreshing to have Jamie back on the commentary. I appreciate AJ's insight to the game but he just talks so much. It's nice to have some silence during player's shots.
This was super fun to watch! Talk about a high level...holy moly! I know "there can be only one" but the way Rick and Eagle played? Well, there's gonna be *some* flingin' to watch in 2017! It's a tough two, but much congrats Eagle as well as to Rick. Played mighty. And thanks for the vid, SpinTV and for all involved in getting these posted!
that was awesome! even knowing what happened still was great to watch. thanks spin tv for the hard work.
Amazing golf! Im not even playing and my nerves are shot and im on the edge of my seat for this first major! Way to go guys! Awesome golf and amazing start to the 2017 season!
Exciting disc golf to watch and what a crazy finish!! Thanks so much for the great coverage on all of the rounds...much appreciated.
Amazing coverage SpinTV!!! Thanks so much for this amazingness. Can't wait for the rest of the season!
What a nail-biting game! Great coverage! Thanks!
Being 18 years old and that good... it just insane.
Absolutely great coverage, loved every second of it, would like to see the relationship of who lands where off the drives to gain a perspective of who drives what and where it lands, thanks!!!!
awesome coverage once again!
SO exciting. I hope this is a sign that we'll see next-level competition this season.
Great job guys... just gets better and better.
WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glad I stayed up!
Great coverage. Thank you.
Great coverage, but I've never been more appreciative of the pros commentating on videos these days.
awesome start to the season , looking forward to many good battles between those 3. The smooth comment by Jamie was funny
Congrats to Ricky. Wanted to see Eagle win, but his time will come. This was a great start to what I think will be best year of disc golf ever.
Bring back Barsby!! But dang what a round. Eagle showed his age here, but if anything, it just shows he is going to dominate this sport very soon considering how young he is.
Avery is pretty hilarious...
not intentionally
Wow what a show that was great to watch
Man, I was really rooting for Eagle, and I'm a big fan of Rick's too, but for whatever reason I wanted to see Eagle take it. So close! Thanks for the coverage.
Was not expecting that after watching every hole of this tourney.
What a finish. Was so good be there.
That was a fun final 9!
What a sick and ridiculously cool round by Eagle having the reigning World Champ at his back for four rounds and fighting him off again and again in that fourth round just to ... get the jitters in the end. Maaaaaan.....
Thanks!
I wish you guys could include a mini map of the hole you're on to get a bird's eye view.
I really wanted to see Brathwaite play this course.
Philo's a great putter.
Mega SUPER like for Ricky! What a great round. Also - hilarious shot of him playing a didgeridoo at the end.
I'm a Team Trilogy player, and a huge Ricky fan, but OMG! I knew that would be hard to watch, but that was way harder to watch then I thought. I can't even imagine.
Thanks guys
This still hurts to look at, I was rooting for Eagle so hard when this was on
finally get to watch it, glad it didnt get spoiled for me. I think Wysocki might just steal this one away
I like this video,
I can't believed Eagle just gave away his title like that. Paul still my favorite player, awesome eagle shot there
Dam..Eagle. was rooting for u boi! Nerves of steel couldn't hold up. tuff lost buddy. Many more opportunities ahead. Gotta stay clutch w the big boys!
Congrats to Ricky.
quite the competitive round!
Ricky and that blue harp make such sweet love
So fun to watch.. any footage of Braithwaite's card?
No high quality footage, but if you go onto the DGWT instagram there is some phone videos of a few holes
that was heartbreaking..... but yea the winner deserves it... does anyone know if manabu throws lightweight discs outside of japan or if he throws normal discs?
I'd assume that he uses ligh weights outside of Japan too. He has used light weights his whole career and since there are no weight restrictions outside of Japan it's unlikely that he'd switch
I'd guess lightweight, seeing how he doesn't have the arm of the big boys.
I expect to see more Eagle vs. Ricky battles this year! Can't wait to see what's in store for these guys!
Don't forget the Beast!
No beastmode in Aussie, except that great par 5 eagle.. . After his injury last year he's been struggling a bit, I think. Not in the level of Ricky and Eagle right now but hope he bounces back quickly.
Fun to see if Simon can get in the mix this year.. .
Antza T you mean the eagle he got TWICE in four rounds? can't count mcbeth out in any tournament
was cheering for rick the whole time! what a great tournament i dont think it can get any more exciting then this..clutch mcbeast..eagle just comes off like a spoiled cocky kid but we were all there once! gonna have an amazing career thats for sure
first! Great commentaries guys. keep up the good work. Great production.
Hell ya Ricky! Feel for McMahon but love seeing Ricky win.
I feel like Jamie congratulating Ricky on his SpinTV debut was a spoiler. Good thing I was able to live in disbelief, there-to-fore Eagle's uncanny undoing.
not a spoiler. Many pros do commentaries with Spin
Sean Kitchin Exactly, so why congratulate him? why not "thank" him, or say "glad to have him in the booth". 0:34 I could be picking on Jamie, but I still think it was a weird choice of words.
Feel bad for eagle because he earned the win, but choked the last 2 holes...
Jonathan Heichel agreed.
Get some sleep, eat 'yer wheaties and come back with force. You crushed it this week and it was a DG highlight to watch you play. Mr. Heichel can keep his opinion, that par save of 17 was downright inspiring. Ricky won, you did not lose.
Just keep crushing you got it bro!
You're still the man Eagle! I get excited just thinking what all you can achieve in the next five years. I have no doubt you'll break through and finish these guys off one day, I'm guessing it'll be sooner rather than later.
nice spoiler :D
Wow Eagle and Mcbeast can get it out there. Amazing. And Wysocki has got to have the best forehand in history of game. Can he hit 500ft. with it ?? Anyway thanks for the great coverage , guys !! :)
Eagle choked as bad as the Warriors did against the Cavaliers ... just brutal. He is unlocking his beast mode indeed.
yeti sighting on hole 17?
does it not look like Ricky just puts into a bigger basket than anyone else... he doesn't even seem to be looking half the time on the shorter putts... like he is checking his watch or phone while he is getting ready to throw and then checking out what looks like a quarter on the ground as he is throwing. it is amazing
Don't get me wrong, great commentating. But would love to have the "Aussie man reviews disc golf". Would be epic!
All week the commentators play up the heat & temp, and no mention of it in the final round. Cmon guys, you're better than that!
Andrew Schober overcast and raining, heat was not in play for the final round
If this doesn't ignite the fire inside the belly of the beast that is Eagle McMahon, than nothing will. The kid has all the raw talent in the world... such a shame he couldn't pull this one out. He will be a better player because of it though.
Ricky held his nerves until the very end. It's part of the game, one that Eagle is learning and will soon pay off for him.
i wanted eagle to win so bad dude. this hurt me and i dnt even know him
anyone know the next tourney now that this is over?
Codie Lowell The next event SpinTV will cover is the Gentleman's Club Challenge Presented By Innova - Feb 23-26.
I'll have coverage information to post pretty soon so stay tuned to our Facebook and IG.
Heartbreaking for Eagle. A much deserved win for Ricky, but still. Eagle will define himself by being able to learn and move on from this.
Thank you for the coverage. The commentary is definitely lacking on this final round. The previous three round's commentary was much better.
Incredible final round, so much fun to watch. Yes I feel bad for the kid (yes he's a great talent, definitely) but Ricky threw -16 in the final round. So he earned and deserved that win 100%
Thanks Spin, Jomez, Avery, Jamie and all the commentators, great coverage as usual.. . But why just Thomas in the final round? There wasn't anybody available or Jamie just prefers that way?

wheres rickys cart?
pooman320 probably a nightmare to travel overseas with it.
He won't forget that shot.
1:00 At that time yesterday Ricky has a 1 stroke lead, but got a triple so Eagle had a 3 stroke lead.
Everyone get off Eagles back. He made so many clutch putts and amazing shots. Thank you for being awesome Eagle. You made one bad shot. Big whoop. We have all done that. Keep being you young man.
Anon Amous he was in beast mode yes but cmon he choked no doubt about it.
Can someone tell me why they will not have European Masters this year or do they skip one year? ☺️
Would love to have seen Manabu as a guest commentator. I feel he would have had a pretty enlightened perspective.
Ricky with a major win in four straight years? Didn't Paul sweep the majors in 2014?
I wonder if it was hard for him to do commentary with a mouthful of McBeth the entire time?!
W@W what a Ending!!!!😎
I have faith that Eagle, with time, will soon catch on and win major events, and have clenched victories under his belt. He is a bit young and underexperienced compared to others like Ricky Wysocki and Simon Lizotte, but he has time. I think things will improve BIG TIME for him though, starting this season. This event certainly proves he runs to close contention and challenges some of the best pros though.
One word - CHOKE
I'm a big fan of Wysocki but that was heartbreaking to watch for Eagle.
Great win for Ricky, though!
Eagle is so good, but still can handle the pressure. I'm sure when he learns to deal with pressure he will be winning a lot more!
My god what a stressful round to watch.
Eagle ... the Vegan Cannon! Great tourney. This will be a great year for you. Keep on dreamin' kid.
Uuuugghh. That hurt to watch. I really wanted the kid to win his first. With more experience he'll learn to control those nerves. He's def becoming one of my favorite players.
Man my heart sunk for Eagle. The kid tries so damn hard. One day, he will get them wins he finally deserves. Absolutely killer shooting by Ricky though, great battle and entertainment.
poor timing on the commercial after 17! The tension was at its PEAK! Man gotta feel for eagle, he had kept it together for so long. Could see the loss coming with the slomo shots of him being nervous.
Wow.
Spin tv are you guys going to post the women's footage or any chase card footage?
Rick has had a major the last 4 seasons? Didn't paul take them all in 2015 tho? Isn't it rick's 4th season overall with a major?
Tom Shufflebottom Fitness yep, I meant to say "4 majors in the last 4 years." You're correct he didn't win in 2015 because Paul completed the grand slam, but he won 2 last year (worlds and EO).
Ahh ok, I see what you mean, appreciate the comment JT!
ahh eagle why bud why good try and I'm happy that Ricky comes out on top great tourney well played by all my favorite highlight was Paul's huge put for eagle !!
