Fide-rated tournament of 2012 in Cebu, Philippines
The first Fide-rated tournament of 2012 is being brewed by the Cebu Chess Association (CCA).
The Cebu City Charter Day Chess Open Tournament will be bankrolled by the Cebu City government through the Cebu City Sports Commission.
”I have already booked the E-Mall Activity Center for a five day tournament—the Charter Day open. We are yet finalizing the details but everything has been set already,” CCA tournament organizer Roger Abella said.
Abella said that just like last year, the tournament will offer a P100,000 prize to the champion.
While the details for the other cash prizes and special awards are already being arranged.
The date and further details of the tournament will be out in the coming days along with the names of the top players who are expected to come to play in the tournament.
Last year, the Cebu City Charter Day Open was participated in by four chess Grandmasters, including the country’s No. 1 player GM Wesley So and No. 2 player GM Joey Antonio.
