I don't see any coverage of the Sanremo European Open, June 12th to 27th, in the Vugraph schedule. Is this still being negotiated?

At long last I got our schedule for Sanremo. It will be comprehensive, starting on June 13 (Saturday), and ending on June 27. No broadcast on the 18th and 25th.

We will be covering the Mixed Teams (4 tables), Open Teams (4 tables) and the final of the Open Pairs over two days (1 table). Full schedule on our vugraph web page later today.

Off topic nitpicking: City is called San Remo (St. Remus)


Ah, time for some useless knowledge!

The name of the city is a phonetic contraction of San Romolo, which refers to Romulus of Genoa, the successor to Syrus of Genoa. In Ligurian his name is San Rœmu. (Source: Wikipedia)
Strangely enough, he was named after Romulus and Remus, two brothers who founded the city of Rome. (Source: My Latin teacher :))

There's a village actually called San Romolo not far from Sanremo/San Remo
