With the title, she became the first Canadian woman to become a world champion and first Canadian to win a title since Brent Hayden. An elated Masse said after the race that “I don’t think it’s really sunk in yet. I touched the wall, I looked back and I had to make sure I as looking at the right name and the right time. I was just super excited in the moment. After the Olympics I just gained a lot more confidence in myself and experience. I gained a lot from just doing that routine for a week, doing prelims, semis and finals. All that experience really helps and makes you feel more confident.”

After seeing she had won the event she told reports how she felt about the win and coming in to the event as the favourite, saying, “Relief, happiness. Just coming into another big meet with kind of a target on your back is something relatively new to me. So I’m still trying to kind of focus on my stroke and what I can control and not worry too much about outside pressures or anything like that.” Masse followed up her victory in the 100 m back with a gold in the 200 m backstroke the next day. She again set a Commonwealth Games record, finishing ahead of 17 year old teammate Taylor Ruck. Masse ended her games with a silver medal and a Canadian record in the 50 m backstroke and another silver medal in 4 × 100 m medley relay event.
