The 51st Canadian Open Championship took place 19th to 26th July 2014. Sergei Tiviakov won in an Armageddon tie-break to edge out Robin Van Kampen and Ehsan Ghaem Maghami on tie-break after all scored 6.5/9. The Armageddon was just for the trophy - the money was split evenly. It is possible these tie-break games will become available as they were videod. Tiviakov got a bye in the first round (best tie-break) beating Ehsan Ghaem Maghami who beat Van Kampen in the first round. Games and videos available below.
