WCDF Statutes 5.9 i. The result between the individual players – mini league if appropriate,
Absolutely correct, Liam!

Current standings:

1. King 11, 101 S/B
2. Beckwith 11, 88 S/B (direct encounter: 2-2)
3. Borghetti 10, 96 S/B
4. Price 10, 70 S/B
5. Kondlo 10, 64 S/B
6. Durdyev 10, 63 S/B (minileague incomplete)
7. Francis 9, 75 S/B
8. Bernini 9. 73 S/B (no direct encounter)
9. Martynov 8, 68 S/B
9. Morrison 8, 68 S/B
11. McCosker 8, 64 S/B
12. Moran 8, 57 S/B
13. Colin Young 8, 45 S/B (minileague incomplete)
14. Bryan 7, 61 S/B
15. Rose 7, 40 S/B (no direct encounter)
16. Layne 6, 44 S/B
17. Graham Young 6, 41 S/B (Kent Layne also beats Graham Young 3-1 in direct encounter)
18. Joliff 5, 23 S/B
19. Morgan 5, 31 S/B ( John Joliff beats John Morgan 3-1 in direct encounter!)
20. Boyle 4, 28 S/B

Note that all players on 8 points also have worse S/B then most players on 9, 10 or 11 points, ie their chances to win the event are only theoretical, as they do not only have to close in 3 points, but their chance of having a better tie-breaker in this case is considerably reduced.

Thanks to Nadiya Chizhevska for the first report of the Women's World Championships:

"for this moment me and Amangul Berdiyeva have 8 points, Wilma Branch and Vitalia Doumesh have 7 points, Wynell Neverson have 2 points. Vitalia Doumesh finished. Tomorrow i play with Wilma and Amangul play with Wynell"

Tomorrow last round

I am backing Igor Martynov. :D
But Miki, Richard, Lubabalo, Matteo or Shane would also be fine.

Looks like Ron King had a very bad day. His first lost to Igor, when he could least afford it...

I was up in the UK working last week, and managed to get over to Knighton to see some old friends and new at the Welsh and GAYP QT.

This GAYP QT was really strong as the majority of associations sent their International Grandmaster hitmen !!

I met my old friends Ron, Richard, Jim, Shane Bashim and Amangul and Ian Caws, as well as meeting Michele and Matteo for the first time. Just this line up alone shows the shear strength of the ty.

As I answered to most who asked me if I'd be playing again in a ty or even a QT, well... time is tight but I will try to make the British next year...prepared of course!! And perhaps in the near future why not represent Scotland in a QT for sure!!

It was nice seeing you all again

William

Tree-move World Champion Michele Borghetti won the QT in Kighton, Wales on tiebreaker. The rest of the field on 19 points is so close that I need to double-check the results before I can post the full standings.

In the Womens World Championship we also had a nail-biter as defending Champion Nadiya Chyzhevska (Ukraine) was narrowly beaten on Sonneborn/Berger by the new GAYP Queen Amangul Berdiyeva (Turkmenistan). Third place went to Wilma Branch (Barbados)

Congratulations to winners of events - Michele Borghetti (Italy) and Amangul Berdiyeva (Turkmenistan).

GAYP World title match among two Italian players will be very attractive.

I can't wait to see final cross table and games from both spectacular events.
