Impressive indeed!
The race is on to become our next GM-will it be Jonah or Harry Grieve or Matthew Wadsworth or perhaps Alex Golding? Or a certain youngster from Battersea CC?
Happy Christmas to all-nice to see the potential shining again-especially after our very good year in the Seniors events worldwide -capped by our Over 50s Team Champions and by John Nunn' being crowned the latest FIDE World Over 65 World Champion!
ATB, Owen,

Am I correct in thinking that despite this excellent result, Jonah didn't achieve a GM norm?

After his mediocre start, no chance. Great second half though.Neil Graham wrote: ↑Thu Dec 22, 2022 9:51 pmAm I correct in thinking that despite this excellent result, Jonah didn't achieve a GM norm?

HIs average opponent after discounting the win against the lowest rated and rounding up the next lowest to 2200 was around 2429. Had it been 2433.5 it would have been a GM norm.NickFaulks wrote: ↑Thu Dec 22, 2022 9:56 pmAfter his mediocre start, no chance.
