One day to go
Yesterday's winners
An earlier finish tomorrow, followed by prizes,
photos and packing up. One wonders whether
the ANC will return here in seven or eight year's
time?
With five matches left in the Open Butler, the
leading pairs are
Jessica BRAKE - Shane HARRISON and
Avi KANETKAR - George KOZAKOS.
True to form, they were the NS & EW winners of
Stage One, five days in the distant past.
Leading the Mixed are
Maurits VAN DER VLUGT - Dagmar NEUMANN.
In fact, they actually missed qualifying by 0.1
VPs and are playing now because one pair above
them had to pull out.
It's been a good fortnight for the Blues.
See them in their blazers tomorrow.
More GOLD if you prefer
In both events, the top nine (yes nine!) eligible
pairs get Playoff Points so make sure you don't
come last!
