The results of the final rounds of the
World
Cup of Royal Saints will be posted here as we have them.
Quarter-finals, starting on July 11th.
Elizabeth of Hungary 61.1
v Charlemagne 38.9
A surprisingly easy win for the Hungarian nurse, putting to flight the mighty emperor.
St Margaret of Scotland 48.3
v Stephen I of Hungary 51.7
Well, the Hungarians are walking away with this, but at least this one was very close.
Jadwiga of Poland 64.5 v
Charles (Karl) I of Austria 35.5
The Poles managed to drum up a massive support for the lesser-known Jadwiga. Will she go all the way?
Louis IX of France 52.3 v
Edward the Confessor 47.7
Another close round, and the plucky English boy goes out.
Semi-finals, starting on July 19th.
Elizabeth of Hungary 51.7 v Louis IX of France 48.3
By a very narrow margin the Hungarian girl casts down French hopes of a victory for "les bleus".
Stephen I of Hungary 35.6 v
Jadwiga of Poland 64.4
The Poles continue to muster their army of supporters, and Stephen is swept away.
Third place playoff.
Louis IX of France
46.4 v
Stephen I of Hungary 53.6
Big Steve takes the BRONZE.
