For info:

Keti did not travel, was unwell (not covid19).

Peter was also under the weather recovering from a persistent cold. However he returned for what tuned out to be the 7th and final round and won. 

The over 50s Team 1 were unfortunate to have very tough opposition in the 6th and 7th rounds.
Over 50s Team 2 finished above seeding.

The over 65s finished strongly and should also be above seeding.

Congratulations to our teams in Prague with some outstanding team and individual performances - some very enjoyable live games to watch ?. Pity the events have been curtailed, but entirely understandable.
