Minnesota Top 100 - 2018

 

The list of the top 100 masterpoint holders in Minnesota as of the end of 2018 is now available!  Huge thanks to Judy Hansen for mighty efforts in collecting all the data to determine our top 100.

We now have six players who have over 10,000 masterpoints. And a few are getting quite close to going over in 2019, though Roger Anderson has already achieved this milestone.  Congrats to our Minnesotans who earned 600 or more masterpoints in 2018:  Bjorgvin Kristinsson with 997.87, Sharon Anderson with 817.47, Roger Anderson with 773.74, Paul Meerschaert with 732.69 and Terry Beckman with 614.32. A fine showing!

And, as we celebrate our players who have reached the top with masterpoints, we also celebrate all Minnesotans who play and enjoy bridge. Doing well in the masterpoint races and earning higher rankings is a big thrill and achievement.  Yet some of our players are not able to compete as much as others.

So - we salute you all!  And we wish everyone a wonderful 2019 as we compete, enjoy this incredible game - and the super people who make bridge so special!
