adrievangeffenWhile not participating in the OEMC 2011 at Mestre, I kept myself entertained by watching the Tour de France. This edition is like watching a Formula 1 race, waiting for the next accident to occur. Broken bones every other hour and cyclists going home or to hospital early. One thing is for sure: they do not appear in the ranking after the Tour is over.

MESTRE - Ildikó Hargitai from Hungary was a most remarkable winner of the 4th Open European Mahjong Championship. Until some years ago, she was hardly noticed during tournaments. But over the last year, she started playing better and better, even though this has not resulted yet in a high ranking in the Mahjong News MCR Ranking or the (more static, but also more official) EMA ranking.
