September From Al Hollander on Bridge Winners. For the upcoming 16th World Bridge Games (formerly and still called by many of us who are past middle age – World Bridge Olympiad), there is now a 35th team in the Open category. The results from the draw do not show the addition of Saudi Arabia which has been assigned to Group B.
If it has been a while since you checked Rosters on the Participants page, there have been changes. The easiest way to view final rosters is the WBF page that has links to rosters for all 4 categories.
