Many congratulations to the Irish Open team (Mark Moran, John Carroll, Tom Hanlon, Conor Boland, Adam Mesbur, Nick FitzGibbon, NPC Grainne Barton) who finished fifth in their pool, and have therefore qualified for the knockout phase of the World Bridge Games in Buenos Aires.
They will play Poland, a strong team who finished fourth in the other qualifying pool, today in the Round of 16 over four segments for a place in the quarter-finals, and we wish them the very best of luck. You can keep an eye on their progress here. Neither our Women’s nor our Mixed Team qualified for the playoff stages.
