Poland Wins World Team Olympiad Title in Seattle
An unheralded Polish bridge team upset defending champions France to capture the World Team Olympiad in Seattle. Poland led from the start, finishing with a lopsided score after a game-changing misplay in a 4 Spades contract. Piotr Gawrys reached 4 Spades in one room, and a brilliant false card by declarer altered East-West defense, turning a potential loss into an IMP swing for Poland. The Polish victory marks their second world title, the first being in New Orleans in 1978. Charles Goren's bridge newsletter offer is noted.
