Nao Tabata was born in Lyon on 2 May 2002 and is the youngest player of all time to have won the excellence series in the open pair specialty.
But, what is even more extraordinary is that his partner, Farès Ait Mouhoub was only one year older than him!
I have no news of players who have won even more young national titles of any country.
Nao learned bridge in fifth year of high school together with his colleague Farès and it seems they did it very well!
