MITCH MCINTYRE: “Really happy to come through this tournament undefeated and take home my fifth consecutive title. I was able to avenge a tough loss and beat a very solid player who got the better of me earlier this year. I learned from that match and was able to make the right adjustments this time around. I kept that momentum through the final without dropping a set. Overall, I’m proud of the way I competed here in Salem. Looking forward to some recovery time and then getting right back to business in Toronto. It’ll be a great opportunity to test myself against a strong draw with top 25 players.”
