Ian Bond Achieves GM Rank

Ian Bond playing with partner Lynette Morgan in the NZ Teams at Congress got over the line of earning 500 A points to become a Grand Master. Their team included Ella Gray and Michael Neels and just missed The Cut for the Finals phase by coming 17th in a field of 108 from all over NZ and The Rest of the World. Just think ... after all these years ... Cambridge has not seen a pair of GM's playing since Bruce and Merle Marr left town back in the 1990's. Lynette and Ian are currently right up there in the running for our Henry Davys Championship.
