POLAND NOT ONLY provided the winner for the sixth time in a row but also went 1-2 for the fourth straight time as Olympic champ Wojciech Nowicki took the top spot over bronze medalist Paweł Fajdek. Fajdek has now scored 9 times straight, Nowicki 6…
FAJDEK ACTUALLY HAD a narrow 6-5 edge in head-to-head over his countryman, but that couldn’t make up for the 2-place podium differential… Surprise Tokyo runner-up Eivind Henriksen holds down the No. 3 spot…
THE U.S. HAD A VINTAGE YEAR, ending a drought that stretched back to ’98 (when Lance Deal was No. 10) with no Rankers. Even more significantly, with both AR setter Rudy Winkler and Daniel Haugh scoring, a pair of Americans were honored for the first time since ’69 (George Frenn & Hal Connolly).
