On the day when the two major team championships started the top performance came in the Power Rosenblum where the French team led by Frank Multon scored three maximums to be the only team in either contest with a 100% record.

It will come as no surprise that the next best record in the Power Rosenblum belongs to Italy's team Lavazza, who have scored 71VP.

In the McConnell, where only two matches have been completed the English squad headed by Dhondy dropped only two points in going to the top of their group.

Meckstroth dethroned

Yesterday's account of the Mixed Pairs winners contained a note that Jeff Meckstroth has now won world championships in four different events, an impressive feat.

There is a player in Montreal who can go Meckstroth one better. It is Bobby Wolff, who has won the Bermuda Bowl, Olympiad (1988), Open Pairs (1974) --- and the World Mixed Teams (1972) and the World Senior Teams (2000).
