We finally had a full 16 man field again and this group was highly competitive, as well as full of controversy. In the final should be noted that both Judges had Mullins well ahead and Ritter only had him up by a point. There are currently accusations of partisan favoritism being bandied about as Ritter is an American like Snee, while the two judges, whom most agree with score wise are from England and Italy. Mullins of course is also from England and is crying foul louder than anyone. It will be interesting to see how this develops, and if these two will meet before next years cup, as Mullins has demanded the opportunity to "make things right" in a rematch. The 30 round quarterfinal clash between Chambers and Bob Mullins will forever be a classic and undoubtedly left Chambers vunerable for his semi-final defeat at the hands of Snee.
