A member of the Canadian Curling Hall of Fame, in this lot we have a curling broom used by Ian Tetley in 1998. In 1994, Tetley joined Wayne Middaugh's new rink, to play as his second. They won the Brier in 1998, and later Tetley picked up his third World Championship. The team made it to the Brier again in 2001, placing third. It would be Tetley's only Brier run that did not result in a world championship. In 2003 he left the team. After playing for Mike Harris for one season, he was brought back to play for Middaugh before leaving for good in 2008 to play second for Peter Corner. Tetley was named to the Canadian Curling Hall of Fame in 1999. According to our consignor, this broom was used by Tetley while playing in the 1998 Brier with Wayne Middaugh, and this appears to be verified by the inscription that’s been added which reads in full “(To) Doc Sawa - Thanks for keeping me in shape for two worlds Ian Tetley ’85, ’90, ’98 CDN & World Champion”. The Brownie curling brush itself remains in excellent condition, with Kodiak stickers on the brush head and at the bottom of the pole, with the brush portion showing nice use.
