April BP Circuit
April 2026 once again brought plenty of competitive action to Funbridge, with 13,076 ranked players on the Bridge Points Circuit. The month also saw the launch of the first edition of the Bridge Trophy, the new name for the BP500 knockout tournament, which brought together 2,435 players.
Bridge Points Circuit: tidou tops the ranking 🥇
The April Bridge Points ranking was won by tidou, also known as Philippe Bellosta, who finished first with 6,021 BP. The French player from Poissy takes the top spot in a circuit that remains highly competitive.
Bridge Trophy: a new name for a BP500 challenge 🏆
In April, the Bridge Cup changed its name to become the Bridge Trophy. This first edition of the BP500 knockout tournament opened on 13 April and brought together 2,435 players, ready to step into the arena of a competition where every victory brings them one step closer to the top.
The format remains true to its DNA: a knockout tournament where each match won lets players multiply their winnings with x5 Bridge Points, while also competing for Diamonds rewards. A demanding competition designed for players ready to make their mark deal after deal.
After several knockout rounds, victory went to Vodka47, also known as Martin Vodička, from Košice, Slovakia. He won the final against Jeter2452 with a score of 38 to 23.
The podium of this first edition also highlights OVDW and Thursday, both semi-finalists after strong runs in this new Bridge Trophy.
David contre Goliath: a highly popular free tournament ⚔️
Another highlight of the month was the free David VS Goliath tournament, which brought together 6,622 registered players. This event focused on a strategic opposition well known to bridge players: major-suit fit versus minor-suit fit for the partnership.
Open to all, this format gave players the chance to compete around a specific theme, while continuing to enrich the Funbridge competitive calendar with a tournament that was educational, strategic and community-focused.
