2025 McCutcheon Award Winners
The McCutcheon Awards are presented annually to the player in each masterpoint ranking group who earns the most masterpoints during the calendar year.
Your category is determined by the level you started the year at. You are then compared against all other ABF-registered players who also started the year in that same category, with the top masterpoint earner recognised as the winner.
Congratulations to all players listed below — an outstanding year of bridge!
