Congratulations to Linda and Bill Pollett, the Open Pairs Champions of 2026.  In the Club's first championship of the year, Linda and Bill were lying third at the lunch break, behind last year's winners Misha Novakovic and Margie Way, but winning the afternoon session ensured a victory over Judy Bussell and John Rayner in second place overall and an excellent showing by third placed Delton Outerbridge and Tim Mardon, one of the three junior pairs taking part.  Thanks to all who competed in the 52 board marathon.
