Canadian men's curling championship
The 1952 Macdonald Brier , the Canadian men's national curling championship, was held from March 3 to 8, 1952 at Winnipeg Amphitheatre in Winnipeg, Manitoba . Winnipeg became the first Canadian city outside of Toronto to host a Brier more than once. A total of 12,500 fans attended the event.[ 1]
Team Manitoba , who was skipped by Billy Walsh became the second team to capture the Brier Tankard in their hometown as they finished round robin play unbeaten with a 10–0 record. This was the thirteenth time that Manitoba had won the Brier and the eighth time in which a team finished a Brier undefeated. This would also be the first of two Briers won by Walsh , with his other championship coming in 1956 .
This was the fifth and most recent Brier in which there were no games that went to an extra end.[ 2]
