On Monday May 23rd, our team beat the famous Nickell team in the finals to earn our place as team USA 1 for the 2023 World Championships.  It was a really exciting match that was close the entire way and luckily our team managed to end on top.

I have lots of hands to share (I still have many from the Bermuda Bowl too) and look forward to sharing them over the course of the summer.  If anyone had any specific hands they had questions about, you can post them here in the Q&A section.  Click here to access the Vugraph archives for all four matches. You can click an individual segment to bring up the hands. If you have a question please share the link to the specific board.  

After what our team went through in Italy with covid, it is an incredible feeling to have earned our spot for next year so quickly.

See you all in class!
