    Masters champion Mike Weir (center) shakes hands with Philadelphia captain Keith Primeau as Toronto captain Mats Sundin looks on after Weir dropped the ceremonial puck prior to a playoff game in Toronto in 2003.

With all of the talk this week about the hockey rivalry between the U.S. and Canada, it brought back memories of the first Canadian to win the Masters.

Mike Weir got the best of American Len Mattiace in the 2003 Masters. 

The Canadian women rallied to stun the U.S. women for the gold medal in Olympic hockey on Thursday. Today, the men square off with a spot in Sunday's gold medal game up for grabs.

Weir also was the first left-hander to win the Masters, beating Phil Mickelson to the punch by a year.
