BridgeTV Australia Live Coverage on Zoom of the
World Bridge Team Championships
from Salsomaggiore, Italy
8.45pm TONIGHT NZ Time
Each night the BridgeTV program will commence at 6.45pm with discussions of the results of the previous day and analysis of some interesting hands. At 7.00pm the round will start with BridgeTV concentrating on one of the matches but we will continue to follow the progress of the other matches and we will monitor and report the scores of the four Australian teams.
GREAT OPENING OF BRIDGE TV.com.au
We had hundreds of viewers for the Open Teams match between Australia and Norway, a world champion team and Australia won 29 to 25.
The commentary on Monday night was great with two Australian bridge legends who are often team mates and partners, Ron Klinger and Matt Mullamphy.
They were joined by our Chef de Mission, Ian Thomson and a member of the legends team. We learnt about submarine bids and Ian had been to the teams captain's meeting and told us about the rules for going to the toilets at Salsomaggiore with International flags.
On the second night we welcomed two members of bridge royalty in Australia, Paul Marston and Barbara Travis as commentators.
TONIGHT NEW ZEALAND versus SOUTH AFRICA
6.45pm Sydney Time - 8.45pm New Zealand
The expert commentators tonight are Barbara Travis and Elizabeth Havas
Guest Commentator – Barry Jones from New Zealand and a Host of the podcast, NZ Bridge Zone.
Hopefully, Ian Thomson, the Australian chef de mission will join us from Italy to give the team line ups for matches, review previous rounds and provide an insight into the World Championships and the Australian and NZ players.
The Host will be Peter Cox who has done hundreds of media interviews in Australia and is Head of Marketing for the ABF.
