England's passage through the round-robin stage of the Venice Cup has been anything but serene. The roller coaster ride continued on day six when, after a huge dip on Thursday, we bounced back with three excellent results.
This, in conjunction with Poland incurring a heavy defeat at the hands of Italy to round off a poor day for them, has resulted in an extraordinary turnaround. Despite having started the day fourteen VPs behind the Poles, we are now twenty-one clear of ninth place !
Venice Cup, Leading Scores After Day Six (eighteen matches out of twenty-one)
1 Denmark 265.33
2 Italy 253.55
3 Netherlands 249.26
4 USA II 247.29
5 USA I 246.07
6 France 240.30
7 China 231.32
8 England 228.54
9 Poland 207.32
10 Canada 191.68
We begin the final day of the round-robin against Canada and then we face Venezuela before a showdown with USA II. With the top eight teams qualifying for the knock-out stages, I'd settle for a day without fireworks !
