1979 CANADIAN SUPERSTARS
I have limited information on the 1979 Canadian Superstars. I do not know if there were 10 or 12 events nor do I know all of the competitors. I do know the top 5 finishers. Brian Budd captured his third and final Canadian title easily. I do know that Bobby Smith and Mike Lenarduzzi played in the tennis final.
