Tournament of Champions
London in 1991 was the beginning of true international Scrabble. That was when the World Scrabble Championship was held for the first time. Since then the World Scrabble Championship has been held every second year, and this has produced a pantheon of winners. Nobody has ever won the World Scrabble Championship twice.In more recent times the Causeway Scrabble Challenge has also come of age as an outstanding international event, and the winners have also merited a place in Scrabble history.
In 2010, Michael Tang is pleased to announce the inaugural Tournament of Champions. This will take place in Johor Bahru from the 7th to the 9th of December 2010, straight after the 9th Causeway Scrabble Challenge. Ten acknowledged champions from across the years have been invited to play 27 rounds, a full round robin each day.
The ten Champions will also be part of the Premier Division of Causeway 2010 vying for a top prize money of US$30,000.
