SUNDAY BULLETIN: THRILLS AND SPILLS IN THE RACE FOR GOLD
The final day of the 45th World Team Championships featured some exciting deals as the players battled for supremacy. In the Venice Cup Turkey regained some ground in the fourth set, but Sweden pulled away decisively in the next one to retain their crown (or should we say tiara). It was a similar story in the d’Orsi Trophy where India gained points in the first session of the day only to see Poland sweep them aside in the next one. The Wuhan Cup was a closer affair, but France picked up points in sets 4 & 5 and maintained their advantage in the last session. The centerpiece was the magnificent contest between the Netherlands and Switzerland, the lead changing hands several times. A thrilling final session saw both sides miss chances, but at the end it was Switzerland who emerged as the winners of one of the great Bermuda Bowl finals.
