Eric did not win the world championship, but he did make it into the playoffs and finished in a tie for 20th!

What an incredible accomplishment!

Just to be able to earn one's way into that event is truly amazing.  The *only* way to participate in the IFPA World Championships is by invitation only based on performance. 

Very impressive achievement, Eric !
