Candidate Master (CM) Anthony Drayton played undefeated to win the Caricom One Day Rapid Chess tournament last Sunday at the National Resource Center. Drayton the highest fide rated player locally with rating points of 1947, was unstoppable, securing seven points from seven games.
Drayton’s toughest challenge came against Loris Nathoo, Alexander Duncan and Errol Tiwari, but still was able to secure wins with his endgame knowledge and experience. Chino Chung ended second with five points after he suffered losses to Drayton and Tiwari, while Loris Nathoo ended on four and half points to secure the final podium position. Alexander Duncan and Errol Tiwari ended on four points apiece.
In the junior category, St. Stanislaus College Joshua Gopaul got the better of Davion Mars and Roberto Neto to secure the top podium position. Gopaul and Mars finished on four points apiece, but got the win on the progressive score tiebreaker. Neto finished on three and a half points.
The tournament was organized by the Guyana Chess Federation. The GCF would also like to thank the Director of Sports and the National Sports Commission for the use of the National Resource Center.
