THOMSON CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP 2015


72 entries were received,some past closing date which did cause some hiccups during the first round pairings. We apologise for the delay. Fortunately it did not cause major changes in the schedule to follow.


We had 33 entries in the Juniors, of which 12 of my students took part. Isaiah came in 2nd with 5.5/7, followed by Qi Xuan in 5th place and I Shiang on 8th. Top 10 places were awarded books as prizes, with the 1st 3 winners getting 2 books each.


Alexander Chan (above left) managed to fend off challenges from the likes of Cyrus Nisban and Royce Tan to emerge the winner of the Seniors with 6 pts, conceding only 2 draws to Lee I-Shiuan and Limono Handjojo. Cheong Sue Lyn managed 4 pts this time on 17th place in a pool of 36 players. Overall, a satisfying tournament with good enthusiastic players wanting to play chess.
