I noticed that there are a few Canadians at the U.S. national tournament, and that Kevin Henshaw "won" the Jr. Men's (at least had the highest score). I'm all for Canadians pushing the sport, but I thought the national tournament was for U.S. citizens. Both Chad Sharpe and Rusty Malinoski advanced, but if they can't win (like Kevin) arn't they just taking a spot away from someone else in that heat who could potentially win ie a U.S. citizen. Just so you know I'm Canadian, and I think it's great that our guys are starting to kick a$$, but I know I'd be pretty pissed if I was one spot out of advancing and someone ahead of me who did advance wasn't even eligible to win. I was at Canadian nationals last year and didn't see any U.S. guys there. Just my 2 cents.
