Two years ago in the Netherlands, France took gold in the Venice Cup and d’Orsi Seniors Trophy while the host nation’s
team claimed gold in the Bermuda Bowl. All three are back in the quarter-finals of their respective events – and two of the three trail with 48 boards to play. Only the French Seniors are ahead. They have a 125-47 lead against their Dutch opponents. In the Bermuda Bowl, the Netherlands, fielding the same lineup as in Veldhoven, have some catching up to do against Poland, who jumped ahead early and lead 153-68.3 at the halfway point. The French women’s team returned with five of the six members from 2011 and are also behind, but need only 22 victory points to draw even with , their opponents. In the World Transnational Open Teams, the leaders are a called Sydney, owners of 67.52 victory points from the five 10-board matches. Right behind them are PD Times with 61.56 VPs.
