Pritish Kushari Memorial Tournament

AboutEvent DetailsScheduleSwiss TeamsIMP PairsPrizesResults

We doubt that any of you need an introduction to Pritish Kushari, arguably one of India's greatest players, who we sadly lost to Covid in May 2021.

Bridge From Home, along with a few of his friends, humbly present this tribute to his memory in the form of an event where we hope all of you will participate in large numbers. We present below an extract from various tributes to his memory made last year and welcome more to add to this list.

He was an ocean of bridge. Apart from being one of the greatest exponents of the game, he had the extraordinary capability of adopting the styles of his partners to make them his own.
Not only did he excel at the game, but he also groomed many a talent to don India colors. In this modern era of distractions galore, he also groomed his son Sayantan to become a National Champion in his own right
Sowmik Das
Whenever I asked him about any problems related to bridge, he always gave solutions with a smiling face. Some were very important tips that, I will never forget in my lifetime. I can't believe that he is no more with us.Anupam Ghosh
Whenever i went to any tournament ... anywhere ... I was always sure to meet him. He was a "permanent" member of the Railways team till he retired.To improve his students, he would partner many of them in major tournaments... but would scold them for mistakes...... sometimes loudly. On one such occasion, I gave him a PP. But he took it with a smile, unlike many who start to argue.
He overcame a great personal tragedy not so long ago.... one that could break most people.... But he overcame it and rebounded. Greatly respected him for that.He will surely live on in our memories for a long time.V K Sharma
Though he was not as flamboyant as some of his peers, I personally always found him as one of the hardest players to earn IMPs against. His greatness didn't only lie in his playing abilities, he has left back his legacy in some of the best bridge players of present.Koushik Mukherjee
