Check out Pro Racquetball Stats wrap up of the IRT Suivant Consulting Pro-Am Grand Slam from the last weekend. It’s a great recap of each winner’s matches on their path to first place. Find the complete wrap up at Pro Racquetball Stats. Here’s a quote from the write up about Sam Murray and his first IRT win. ... Murray, who was in jeopardy of not even traveling to the tournament thanks to Covid-related travel restrictions coming out of Canada, becomes the 41st ever Tier 1 tournament winner in the history of Men's pro tours. Ironically, the previous person to fulfil that particular bucket list item was also the player he vanquished in the final. Murray had a fantastic event, getting his first ever wins over both Mar and De La Rosa, then playing solid racquetball all weekend to win the title. Arguably Murray was the underdog in every match from the round of 16 on, and proved all pundits and prognosticators wrong.
