The final came down to Murray and Iwaasa, as it has done for nearly every single Men’s event for the last decade. Sam wins again to take a big lead into Canadian Nationals in May to continue to represent Canada on the international front, even as his pro career seems to be waning. Solid runs by Leyton Gouldie to get to the semis for the second time. Also, a rare sighting by Canadian legend Roger Harripersad, now 61 yrs of age, who lost in the first round.
