July 22 (UPI) — Having conquered the global computer industry, multi-billionaire Bill Gates has entered the North American Bridge Championships in Nashville, Tenn.

The Microsoft founder was on hand this weekend for the championship bridge event along with his partner, former world champion Sharon Osberg, attempting to mimic the success he had with computers, The (Nashville) Tennessean said Sunday.

“I’ve played for most of my life, but it’s been about seven years that I’ve been coming to tournaments,” Forbes magazine’s richest man said Saturday.
