What classic leading man and card fanatic was at one time one of the top 50 contract bridge players in the world?
Answer Omar Sharif
To say the 'Dr. Zhivago' star was passionate about bridge would be an understatement. Sharif captained the Egyptian team in the 1968 World Bridge Olympiad, started the traveling "Omar Sharif Bridge Circus" to promote the game around the world, contributed to a bridge column for the Chicago Tribune, licensed his name and likeness for a bridge video game, and co-wrote books about the game.
