When The Rebel faces El Peque, there's always drama - and that was definitely the case at the Grand Final when they could only be separated by the longest-ever sudden-death decider at a UTS event.
Schwartzman led by two quarters to one, but after battling back to 16-16 he handed the fourth to Paire when he served a fault on the deciding point.
And in a repeat of the result between the two at UTS Los Angeles, El Peque finally triumphed in sudden death.
