    Please, how about ‘has just won again’. The present perfect is needed here, however much it has been consigned to the dustbin in the USA.

      If you come here for correct grammar, spelling etc., dream on…
      Btw, whatever happened to those lovely old gentlemen, John Rook and Theodore McGuiver, who would write here so eloquently?

    • Peter San Diego says:

      The subjunctive has been consigned to the dustbin in the UK, while still maintaining a toehold in the US.
      Evolution in contrary motion…

    I heard Eric Lu’s recent Wigmore Hall recital of Schubert Sonata and was convinced this is a genuine talent.
