The Ladies 'A' final was a match up of eighteen year old defending champion Krista Plociennik and fifteen year old first time finalist Sonja Andrekovic. Plociennik had cruised to the final without losing a set, though she was pressed in her semifinal against Marta Andrekovic (Sonja's mother).
Sonja upset the #2 seed Claire Scott in the second round and also had yet to lose a set heading into the final. No one was beating Plociennik on this night. With her power strokes on full display, Plociennik crushed the ball all night. Her 6 - 0 , 6 - 0 victory confirmed her status as the top female player in Stratford. This is Plociennik's fourth ladies 'A' title in the last five years.
The Ladies 'B' final was contested between Monica Eickmeyer and junior Vienna Wilson. Both were in their first final and put on a great display. Eickmeyer won the first set 6 - 2 before Wilson rebounded to take the second set 7 - 5. A third set was needed to determine the champion. Eickmeyer regained her advantage and took the third and deciding set 6 - 2 to claim the title.
The Men's 'A' final saw seven time champion Bob Tamblyn take on first time finalist Kurt Eickmeier. Tamblyn, ranked 43rd in the province, showed off his steady game and kept the pressure on Eickmeier all through the match. Tamblyn's masterful footwork allowed him to get to almost every ball and make Eickmeier hit an extra shot time after time. In a match that was much closer than the score would indicate, Tamblyn won his record eighth 'A' singles title, 6 - 1 , 6 - 2.
Juniors battled it out in the Men's 'B' final. Eighteen year old Nathan Walsh, who won the 'B' title in 2009, matched up with John Fischer who is weeks away from turning fourteen years old. Walsh was regulated to the 'B' division after losing his first round match to Morgan Davis in three sets in one of the highest calibre matches of the tournament. Fischer had earlier this week won the Men's 'B' doubles title with his younger brother and seemed to relish the championship night atmosphere. Playing one of his best matches of the season Fischer took down Walsh 6 - 3 , 6 - 3. Fischer is now the youngest winner of the Men's 'B' singles title in Club history.
