Kane Waselenchuk won his 76th International Racquetball Tour (IRT) event by defeating Rocky Carson in the final of the Florida Spring Break tournament in Tampa, Florida, 11-2, 11-5, 11-3. Waselenchuk's 76 wins is the career IRT record.
Waselenchuk played well, but his cause was helped by Carson, who was not sharp. Carson acknowledged that afterwards saying "to not execute when I get chances is frustrating," and it was definitely a frustrating day for Carson.
Waselenchuk won in Florida without losing a game. That was the twenty sixth time he's done that in the last six seasons during which he's won 54 times. So, Waselenchuk's almost 50-50 to win without dropping a game in that period (26 wins without losing a game and 28 with).
There are only two more Tier 1 events left in the 2013-14 IRT season. The IRT's next Tier 1 tournament is the Ektelon In-Shape Open in Stockton, California May 1-4, and that will be followed by the Pro Kennex Tournament of Champions in Portland, Oregon May 15-18.
