   World Bridge Federation

   Above is a link to my record in the World Bridge Federation file, by which you can link
   further to other records and information from WBF. According to its rules, master points
   are reduced by 15% each year for ranking purposes. Once achieved titles are maintained.
   You can click on any competition to see the result list, players of each team, etc.

   I have enjoyed myself listing the number of titles of Swedish players, totally 56
   (including some deceased persons), per November 24, 2011:

   Open

   Women
  •   7  World Life Masters.
  •   9  World International Masters.
  • 10  World Masters.

   Seniors
  •   6  Seniors Masters.

    As you can see, the total sum of titles is 58. Yet the sum of players is 56, depending on
    that 2 players (Anders Morath and Hans Göthe) have 2 titles each (WLM and SM).
