The Arizona Sunshine welcomed the Disc Golf Pro Tour back from its winter slumber at the Memorial Championship last week in Arizona. Paul McBth and Simon Lazot came to play. Thanks for joining us. I'm Steve Hill, Volter World Disc Golf. Here for Jumbus Productions, we're going to walk you through all the highlights from the Memorial Championship. Picking up with action in the final round of Fountain Hills, we have Nate Ston on the lead car, joined by Ricky Wasaki, who is three strokes back, 2016 Pro Tour points champion there, joined by Simon Lazot and Paul McBth who are tied for first place coming in the final round. Let's catch up with McBth before the final. Pretty confident out here on this course. Um, I've played really well at it before and really today it's whoever has the hot round is going to win this tournament. Looking to get a hot start on that final round is Simon Lazot.

Simon sprays it just to the right a bit but keeps it in bounds and then connects for the birdie on the elevated basket. Lazot in his only his second tournament back after season 8 a knee surgery coming out strong as we head to hole four. McBth with that bright yellow destroyer we see him use so often. Clips the tree. Another friendly roll. He's going to be looking at another straddle put out from the tree. Wasaki trying to hang alongside McBTH and Lazot through this round. Gets a little skip a roll. And you heard the crowd. It's back in. Looks like Lazot's going to take a similar line, but not similar luck. He's out of bounds. McBTH...
