That's two in a row for Simpo! The hometown hero pulled a repeat of last year's huge win to take home another $100k from HB's US Open and the title of US Champ.
"This is amazing, man. I'll take this one for HB all day," he said on at the awards presentation immediately after his victory.
Simpson competed against the best in the world and came out on top. In the quarter-finals, he faced 2008 Open champion Nathaniel Curran and beat him by a slim margin. In the semi-finals he defeated the greatest surfer of all time, Kelly Slater, in another narrow victory.
His greatest win, however, was in the finals, when he defeated Smith by more than five points.
