2007 Championships - Who Won What

Grand Prix Championship 2007 (165 Entrants)

There weren't any changes made to the Top 4 places over the Townharbour weekend, so Slats remains in 1st place and Uldis in 2nd. Had Uldis won one more match he'd have moved up into 1st place. Well done, Slats - you've done it again!

 

Ranking Championship 2007 (137 Entrants. 35 Qualifiers)
Well, what a surprise outcome! Thanks to a great performance at the Townharbour Trophy, Myke Wignall emerges as the 2007 Ranking Champion, knocking Adrian Jones into 2nd place. No doubt the last match they played against each other at the TT (from which Myke came out onto top) was the point at which Adrian dropped into 2nd place and Myke was propelled into 1st. Well done, Myke.

Finally

It's good to see Myke Wignall at the top of the Ranking list. He's played some very strong opponents this year and he's beaten a good few of them. I have taken a good look at the stats and it is apparent that if you want to do well in the championships you need to enter the Swiss format events. Playing 6 x 11 point matches will ensure qualification for the Grand Prix, and it doesn't harm your Ranking championship hopes either!

Thanks to all this years participants, and good luck to you all for 2008.
