Men's Event
Bruce Mouat took on 2014 champions Tom Brewster in the Final of the Men's event where the final also went to the wire with some great shots and powerful sweeping on display. With the game tied after 7ends Mouat had the hammer in the last end. Brewster was lying 3 shots when Bruce came to play his last stone where he needed to lift a double and stay to win. He duly lifted the double and then everyone's hearts were in there mouths and the gasps were let out as the stone started to roll. It came to rest with the thought of a measure in mind, but as the teams studied the stones team Brewster agreed that it was one to Mouat and Bruce and his team of Duncan Menzies, Gregor Cannon, Angus Dowall & Bobbie Lammie were Lely Challenger Series winners for 2015
