The 2022 PointsBet Invitational curling tournament was held from September 21 to 25 at the Willie O'Ree Place in Fredericton, New Brunswick.[1] The event featured thirty-two Canadian teams and was the first major event of the "Season of Champions" of the 2022–23 season.[2] It was played in a single-elimination tournament with the winning men's and women's teams of Reid Carruthers and Jennifer Jones receiving $50,000 each.
