IM Norms for Shyam Nikhil, Anwesh & Siddharth, Turov leads 7.5/8 @ Chennai Open 2010

Tagged with:

Three Indian juniors made their International Master Norms viz., P Shyam Nikhil, Anwesh Upadhyaya and R Siddharth after the eighth round of the Chennai Open 2010 International Grandmaster Chess tournament at Multipurpose Indoor Stadium, Chennai. All the three players get their nine game IM Norm and may improve upon it, as the event still has three rounds remaining.

Shyam Nikhil and Anwesh Upadhyaya defeated their illustrious Grandmaster opponents R B Ramesh and Martyn Kravtsiv respectively. Siddharth drew with Grandmaster Deepan Chakkravarthy and will be meeting his fifth straight GM opponent tomorrow.

Grandmaster Maxim Turov leads the table with 7.5 points, followed by GM Marat Dzhumaev and giant killer Anwesh Upadhyaya at 7.0 points. Six players – GMsManik Mikulas, Ziaur Rahman, Rinat Jumabayev, IMs Vikramaditya Kamble, Lalith Babu & FM Shyam Nikhil  - are sharing the fourth spot at 6.5 points.
