Quarterfinal Match
John Ellis vs Mike Green

Cat# NC-3

This may have been the match of the tournament. John Ellis...solid player possessing all the weapons of a top pro consistently in the semis/finals meets another up-and-comer Canadian champion, Mike Green...control, high work ethic, unsuspectingly quick, more of a tactical player than a "blow you away with power and speed" player.

The match goes back and forth...neither player seeming to keep any momentum for long...all the way down to the wire til one wins it 11-10 in the break.

Quarterfinal Match
Ruben Gonzalez vs Jason Thoerner

Cat# NC-4

With Sudsy Monchik out with a foot injury, it allows other players to make it further in the draw. This time it's local favorite, Jason Thoerner, with his laid-back trash-talking style and wicked forehand meeting the Legend, Ruben Gonzalez, in the quarters.

Final Match
Cliff Swain vs Jason Mannino

Cat# NC-7

Fully edited match of the rematch of their finals match in San Diego at the last prostop. Interviews, color commentary by Shawn "Hollywood" Royster, local TV coverage clips, slow motion replays on over 80 informative and entertaining rallies...even an infomercial of the host club and 48 sponsors.

The match itself is an exciting 4 gamer with Swain dominating Game 1 but then Mannino fightbacking back with his trademark incredible gets and making the shots when he needed too...including the match-winning shot. Very entertaining video with warm-up section and awards presentation following the match. 4 game match
