Шаблон:Short description Agnes Leslie Gordon (née Willson, April 25, 1906 – May 24, 1967)[1] was a Canadian bridge player.
She was born in Ridgetown, Ontario and graduated from the University of Ontario. She moved to Buffalo, New York after her marriage in 1930, although she remained a Canadian citizen.[1][2]
At the North American Bridge Championships meet in November–December 1963 (then called "Fall Nationals"), Gordon and Eric Murray won the premier annual Шаблон:Gcb championship of the North America, the Rockwell Mixed Pairs. Their score in the final session, 506.5 Шаблон:Gcb of 650 top, or 78%, is the highest single-session score in the history of national-level ACBL pairs competition (at least, it was from the 1930s to 2009).[3] During the same 16-day meet, Gordon and Helen Portugal tied for first place among eight pairs in trials to play on the USA women team in May 1964.[4] They went on to earn silver medals in the second quadrennial World Team Olympiad with a second-place finish behind Great Britain.Шаблон:Efn
She died in a Buffalo hospital in 1967 from cancer.[5]
Gordon was inducted into the ACBL Hall of Fame in 2009.[6]
