2009 Yonex Canadian Open National Championships Tournament Results

Laval, QC: Beijing Olympian Anna Rice of North Vancouver won her second straight Women's Singles title at the 2009 Yonex National Open Championships.  Rice dominated the competition never losing a game in all her matches.

“Anna is definitely our dominant player and is setting up well for her swan song at the World Championships in August.  While her retirement will leave a gap in the short term, we have some very strong players coming up to fill her shoes.  BC’s performance at this Nationals is better than expected so the future looks bright,” commented CEO of Badminton BC, Brock Turner.

Noting other great performances - Doubles specialist Toby Ng of Vancouver won gold in Men’s and picked up a silver in Mixed.  Timothy Ma, of Vancouver, won silver in Men’s Doubles.

Alvin Lau and Melody Liang, both of Vancouver, picked up a Bronze in Mixed Doubles.  Lau also picked up a Bronze in Men’s Doubles.  Liang picked up another Bronze with Stephanie Ko of Vancouver in Women's Doubles.  Phyllis Chan of Vancouver won Bronze in Women's Singles.
