PARIS - Désirée Heemskerk from the Netherlands is the new leader in the EMA Riichi Ranking. The previous number 1, Kim Iversen from Denmark, did not do quite well in the Danish Riichi Open last weekend (he got the 'booby prize' there), so he went down to position number 13. Désirée appears to be very amazed. "I never realized that I was that high in the ranking", she says. "I am very glad of course, but, in the first place… surprised!" |
