This upcoming Friday is a special occasion on BBO vugraph. Laila Kuusinen from Salo Bridge Club in Finland turns 100, and we will be showing 8 boards live with the grand old lady in action.
I don't know how many 100 year old tournaments players there are around the world, but my guess is that they are few and far between. I have been told that Ms Kuusinen is a capable player with quite a few excellent results to her name.
In theory, you can start playing bridge as soon as you can sit on a chair, and you won't have to stop until you can't sit on that chair any more! One of the reasons that makes our game fascinating.
Young or old, doesn't matter. You can enjoy the game regardless of age. I vividly recall how one of my sons, when he was 10, sat down to play with an 80 year old. They had a great time.
