Erom Mario to Mayo

After a robust peformance by Mario Saliba on the first day of the Yearend 3-Day Tournament, Day 2 produced an equally strong showing, this time by Josephine Mayo (seen in photo), who garnered six wins out of seven.

 

Her partial victory allows Mayo to edge past Saliba in the weighted classification thanks to a higher denominator of games played. However, she will need to produce a flawless run on the third day of the tournament if she is to pip Nicky Vella Laurenti, who is yet to drop a game, to the post. 

 

However it goes, it has been a good year for Mayo who managed to stand her own in the topmost division of the 34th Malta National Scrabble Championship before coming out on top in the B Division of the 10th MISO Early Bird and 3rd in that of the Main Event
