a decade of top-10 finishes in this
race. He found out he was leading
the race at a Toronto sectional in July
when R1 director Jonathan Steinberg
predicted he would win. " Soon after,
a rising young bridge star, Jacob
Freeman, told me he wanted to win
too. That kind of sent me playing
more tournaments. It was a very
satisfying year for me. " Chan also
went over 15,000 masterpoints.
