EGO onto CENTRISM
Steve thus defended both the SA
Nationals and the SA Masters over the last 4 days, winning his 3rd Masters and
4th national title.
This means that Steven and Trevor
qualify as SA's representative to the 2003 World Scrabble Champs in Malaysia in
October 2003. They are the top two SA permanent residents/citizens on the
ratings list after the Masters. Dylan narrowly missed qualification.
