European Tantrix Championship 2002 - Knockout Phase

Thu. A relieved no. 4 seed Steven Trezise (GBR) became the first British player to win the European Tantrix Championship by beating unseeded Franky Heyer (FRA) in the Final by 66.7-53.3 TPs after a spirited comeback from the Frenchman in the final session. Franky is the second French runner-up in this tournament in succession and had knocked out four of the 16 seeds as well as being the only non-British player (of the six who had tried) to beat a Briton in the KO phase. For more details, please see the Final Preview & Reports page which has contributions from both players.
