Niek Brink is 25 until the end of May, 2005, and afterwards at least 26. He is still a student, hoping to graduate next month. His bridge accomplishments include placing second at the European juniors in 2000, Australian Men's pairs champion in 2004, European students winner 1999, several Dutch youth titles. He asks the question, "Why does the minimum age for a senior rise the next five years, and does the maximum age for a junior not do so?"

At present he resides in Tilburg, but could be somewhere else when he gets a job after graduating. He speaks Dutch and English.
