The finals of the Mario Kart Tour tournament at the Women’s Cyber Games 2021, saw the 2 finalists; Kaumini “PiK4CHU” Gunasinghe and Udani “ELZA” Wijemanne go head to head to determine the better racer. Race 1 of the finals went the way of ELZA, with her being in the lead for the entirety of the race. Even PiK4CHU’s blue shell hit in the last lap of the race wasn’t enough to stop ELZA from taking race #1. The 2nd race on the other hand was won by PiK4CHU, as halfway through the final lap she passed ELZA to take race #2. The final race also started with ELZA taking the early lead for the majority of the race. However, a last minute overtake by PiK4CHU was enough to beat ELZA and take the final race, and with that the entire tournament.
