Initially introduced to bridge
at the age of 11 by mother
Olivia, by 16 the twins were the
youngest ever players in the
World Olympiad in Miami, and soon
they went on to become European
Champions and World Junior
champions.
Jeff Morris who runs the
Manchester Bridge Club ;
"They have a lot of
experience and I believe they
will do very well. I am sure they
will one day be world champions
at senior level."
Jason is based in Manchester,
England along with his other
expert family members, Jason has
also shared in the Hacketts'
unprecedented success.
He became Britain's youngest ever
Grand Master at the age of 24,
and is the only person to have
reached that rank whilst still a
junior.
Jason offers a diplomatic
answer to the obvious question;
which twin is best?
"It goes up and down,
it's fairly even. The strength is
in the partnership rather than
the individual thing."
Currently Jason is captaining
the English Juniors when not
taking time of to go bungee
jumping or scuba diving.
With so much already achieved,
Jason has his eye on one
particular prize, the Bermuda
Bowl, "probably the biggest
prize in Bridge".
