I was looking thru the ranking list of all the 2009 WBC competitors, and I notice many are familiar faces I see here on bX.

Super cool that all 6 finalists are active here on bX, and from a quick search I found quite a few more (I am sure I missed a few), feel free to send your favorite competitor a nice message or congratulation post. What a great group, and each year the competition seems to get better and better. I am happy that bX can be a resource for all competitors, judges, and baristas. If the champion of your country is not on bX, invite them to join.
