Dream Teams

Four teams slept soundly last night secure in the knowledge that today they would start out on a match that will see two of them crowned as World Champions on Saturday.

Poland and Italy will contest the final of the Open series. The Poles were always in control of their match against the USA, but Italy were given several scares by an English team that has impressed everyone before they finally saw daylight..

We have know for some time that the USA would provide one of the finalists in the Women's event, and they completed the formality of a victory over the gallant squad from Norway.

The remaining match between Canada and Germany was a much closer affair, with the lead changing hands several times. At one point yesterday it looked as if Germany were breaking clear, but the Canadians stuck to their task, and with both teams showing signs of fatigue, it was the Canadians who displayed the stronger resolve, to produce an all North American final.

Transnational Mixed Teams

You can't escape the Internet bridge sensation e-bridge, as their star studded team tops the rankings after eight rounds. They are followed by team Zenit, and then come two more teams packed with World Champions, Hackett, and Eisenberg. A more thorough study of the field now has the count of World Champions taking part up to twenty-four!
