Twenty two (22) chess players had participated in the just concluded Hari Raya Classical Chess tournament organized by Jax Tham. It is a very commendable effort by the organizer for such tournament since classical chess tournaments are very rare in Malaysia. The six rounds tournament just ended today and Jax Tham himself, ranked second to Abdullah Che Hassan won the tournament by winning 5 games and drew with Abdullah in the third round. The latter just managed to score 5 points because he drew his final round againts U12 Selangor state player, Roshan Singh.


Seeded sixth with national rating of 1492, Roshan, edged other higher rank players such as Perakian Mark Siew (1692) and Chong Kwai Kun (1569). Eventhough Roshan lost to the eventual champion in the first round, he defeated both of them in the fourth and fifth round respectively. What an achievement for the young and talented Roshan in this tournament.


With 4 points, both Joshua Foong and Andrew Soong, were placed fourth and fifth respectively. While the former lost to the top two seeds, the latter was defeated by the fourth and fifth seed.
