A female surprise
A satisfying number of 18 players gathered at 10:00 in hall "Ensor",
amongst which a certain Nadine Van Laer, a blond lady who put her
name down with nothing but the Olympic motto in mind: participating
is more important than winning. Nonetheless, - and I quote - she hoped
not to end in the last place and to win at least one game. One game?
A hesitating style of playing, yes; she seemed to have doubts about
every single move she made but, having said that, effective she was!
Nadine won the tournament with 6 wins in a row and left the others
nothing but a fight for the second place. That second place is mine,
Fred Kok must have thought, and he beat top-favorite Stephen Tavener
in the last round.
