The results are in for the Stars & Platinum 3-Day Robot Individual tournament, and we have our winners:

Special congratulations to our dear friend, Uday Ivatury (uday) from New York City, who claimed first place with an impressive overall score of 63.66%. Uday held strong across all three days, starting with 62.36% on Day 1, moving up to 2nd place on Day 2 with 63.24%, and locking his top spot on Day 3 with a strong 65.39%. Many of you may already know, Uday was formerly the Chief Technology Officer at BBO and played a key role in building Bridge Base Online into what it is today—no wonder he’s at the top of his game! Fun fact: Uday was also the ACBL's 2021 Honorary Member of the Year.

In second place, we have Venkatesh Ramaratnam (rv), a star player from Bengaluru, India, with a background as a senior project manager in tech. RV finished with an impressive overall score of 62.41%. His journey was also impressive—after starting with 54.53% on Day 1, he soared with a 65.59% on Day 2, and closed with 67.12% on Day 3, placing him into the runner-up spot.

Rounding out the top three is Willem Mevius (willem), a Senior Software Developer from France, finishing with 62.03%. Willem stayed consistent with scores of 61.32% on Day 1, 63.65% on Day 2, and 61.11% on Day 3 to earn a well-deserved third place.

It seems like we’ve got a theme here—our top three are all tech experts as well as talented bridge players!
