Andrea Hand wins third consecutive Canadian Women’s Pro Championship
Andrea Hand of Kaslo has secured her third consecutive Canadian Women’s Pro Championship title following her victory in London, Ontario, in September 2026. This achievement marks a historic milestone, as no other woman in Canada has won the national title three times in a row.
Hand previously won gold at the women’s world championship in Budapest, Hungary, this past June, where she also set a Canadian record in the standing block chop. Her performance in Budapest occurred during the inaugural year of the women’s world championships.
Hand is scheduled to travel to Stuttgart, Germany, with Team Canada on October 30 to participate in the STIHL 100th anniversary of the sport and the men’s world championship. She intends to represent Canada at the women’s world championship again in June of next year.
