2021 Times Bridge Calendar - A great way to make sure you practice everyday. The Times Bridge day-to-day calendar is based on Andrew Robson's acclaimed daily bridge column. Here he presents over 300 bridge problems for enthusiasts of all levels, with Fridays reserved for less experienced players, and the remaining days of the week providing a potpourri of bridge gems. You will look forward to your new hand each morning!

Each issue features in-depth articles on bidding, play, and defense by Audrey Grant, David Lindop, and many top-ranked players and writers. The topics are practical, so you can use what you read at the bridge table immediately. Learn and practice concepts in the play and defense articles with carefully constructed deals. Use the accompanying quiz to the Modern Bidding column to test your knowledge and understanding. New subscriptions will start with the next unreleased issue.
