The Masters is a Grand Slam event on the men's and women's curling tour. It is the first Grand Slam event and first major on the tour.
The event is one of the original men's Grand Slams, which began on the World Curling Tour in the 2001–02 season. It was re-named the World Cup of Curling from 2009 to 2011. In 2011, it amalgamated with the women's Sun Life Classic, which added a women's event to the Masters. The first incarnation of the event with both men and women was held in 2012 at the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre and the Brantford Golf & Country Club in Brantford, Ontario.
A "Tier 2" event was added in September 2025.
The event is currently sponsored by AMJ Campbell, a moving company.
