2012 - World Mind Games Bridge - Day 6

GOLD MEDALS IN BRIDGE PAIRS GO TO THE NETHERLANDS AND CHINA
TODAY WITNESSED ONE OF THE MOST DRAMATIC FINISHES IMAGINABLE IN BOTH THE MEN'S AND WOMEN'S PAIRS EVENTS AT THE 2012 BEIJING SPORTACCORD WORLD MIND GAMES.
In the Men's event the Netherlands Simon de Wijs and Bauke Muller overtook the pair who had been leading the event for the whole of the last session, Sweden's Peter Bertheau and Per-Ola Cullin on the very last of the 88 deals to capture their second gold medal of the games. Meanwhile a strong finish by China's Zhong Fu and Miao Shi saw them tie with the Swedes and they both earn silver medals.
It was no less dramatic in the Women's event, as it appeared that China's Ming Sun and Hongli Wang and France's Bénédicte Cronier and Sylvie Willard had tied for the Gold Medals. An exact tie in a Pairs event is unprecedented, so to have two, one in each event is bordering on the miraculous. However, a small scoring error was discovered and that meant gold for China and silver for France. The bronze medals are also going back to France thanks to Danièle Allouche and Vanessa Reess.
