Gabriel Chagas, of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is by far South America's all-time most successful player. He is a three-time World Champion, and has won bridge's Triple Crown — The Olympiad, the Bermuda Bowl, and the World Open Pairs — something only eight others have accomplished. He has also contributed to bridge theory, being the first to write about and explain the intra-finesse.
