Canadian Open & Handicap Tournament, 2002

Puget Sound Players Visit our Northern Neighbors

Mike LePore emailed the following report on Sept. 9, 2002, shortly after our Labor Day weekend at the Canadian Open in Richmond, B.C.
I guess I will be the first to file a report from the Canadian Open.

Mike M, Mike L (me), and Jason went up together. None of us won trophies (top three in our division) but there are some unofficial awards that were given.

Most Excuses for a Loss Award -- Me. Easily.

Easiest Win Award -- Jon Boley, who never came close to breaking a sweat in his third game.

Seattle vs Tacoma Award -- Seattle gets it this year, as Jason Beat Mike M.

The So Close Yet So Far Award -- Jeff Horn of Kent, who went 3-0 on day one and then lost three consecutive super close games on day two.

Vancouver was fun -- Dinner at a Chinese restaurant with a Chinese wedding celebration. Beautiful skyline. Nice weather. I hope it comes back to Vancouver soon so we can do it again.
