Recently Gladys Wilson won gold in Scrabble at Canada Olympic Park, 1,100 people participated.

It was the 25th anniversary of the Olympic Games.

“One crucial game was tie so I just happened to recheck the addition of one of my words and it was undercounted by two points which resulted in a total recount of whole game, he had over counted one of his words by three which gave me a lead of five, winning the game and gold.”

A tie is half a win, which wouldn’t have been enough for Wilson to win gold.
