CANYA declared a tie in the 1A division of the 2017 Canadian National Return Top Contest. In such case the IYYF conducts a full audit of scores to determine the seed for the Word Yo-Yo Contest. A detailed review of the original judges score sheets and computed results revealed there was a slight error with handwriting interpretation. This was corrected and the updated results place one player ahead by 0.3 points. The IYYF on reviewing the results and obtaining additional comments from judges, has awarded the seed to Worlds 2017 to Harrison Lee.
CANYA has ruled the difference of 0.3 points is not enough to reverse its earlier decision regarding the tie and will continue to award the National Championship title to both Luckey Li and Harrison Lee. The updated scores for the 1A division are provided below.
