8141. National championship
Alan McGowan (Waterloo, Canada) reports that in Helensburgh on 14 July 2013 Roddy McKay became Scottish champion for the eighth time, having first won the title (jointly) in 1971. Our correspondent asks whether this spread of 42 years in the same national championship has been matched or surpassed by any other players.
