The Tiger Canadian Women's Pool Tour held its fourth event of the 2007 season July 15 at Bobby D’s Billiards & Grill in Burlington, Ontario. Out of the field of 27 players, Sunday saw the return of the top 8 of the event, with top honors ultimately falling to Corrine Johnson.

Corrine Johnson (pictured) defeated Brittany Bryant in the finals of the Tiger Canadian Women's Pool tour stop at Bobby D’s Billiards & Grill in Burlington, Ontario.

In the B-side, Terri “Tiger” Mason fought her way through to the quarterfinals, where she was relegated to fourth place by Brittany Bryant after a double-hill match. It was then Belanger’s turn to face Bryant, but a rattled 8 ball in the hill-hill match gave the win to Bryant. The double-elimination finals between Johnson and Bryant saw Johnson streak to a 5-2 lead, but Bryant fought back to close the gap at 5-4. A scratch by Johnson gave the table to Bryant, who hung the 8 ball, allowing Johnson to finish out the match with a 6-4 win.
