Canada Open 2014 in Vancouver

She injured her knee just before the interval at G2. God, the courts must have been awful as she went down right knee first and it took a while for her to walk/massage off the pain. I thought she might retire. good on her for preserving and wining the title. First time that a Canadian player won the WS since 1999
Thanks for the information on the injury. I take back any negative comments about her fitness and in fact applaud her for carrying on to victory. Just hope it is nothing too serious to her knee. :(
 
Let's hope the floor gets better for next year.

This was a new group of organizers this year, and that's why the courts turned out the way they did. Hopefully it doesn't detract them too many players in the future.

And there are rumors again that it may be in Toronto next year since Pan Am Games will be there. Especially since US Open will be in NY again next year.

That could be very well true as I know that the Canada Open was supposed to move East a couple of years ago but didn't due to lack of bids(?) Pan Am is July 10-26 so timing is there for sure.

As for Michelle Li, it is the US Open next follow by the Commonwealth Games.
 
I am sure that there are pics available as I saw that jyeung was onsite taking tons of pics.

Here's one that he took of the WS Champion right after the end of the match.10511514_10152516097368334_5320880518505251275_o.jpg

The Canadians lose a long rally but even it by winning the next point quickly at the Yonex Canada Grand Prix 2014.

I was planning to watch this at the hotel (but had really bad wifi reception at the time and did not get back to it until now). I do not remember this point haha. It was a great match though. Could not tell who was going to win.
