NIELS W. PEDERSON (last update 2005)
Tournaments Around The World - Niels' pages often had better information (results, bulletins, etc) than the tournament's own page! Always quick to load and easy to navigate, Tournaments Around The World was a good bookmark for avid bridge contest kibitzers. Not updated since 2005, the page still holds a lot of useful links.
