Congratulations to Tymur Keleberda on winning the Northern Alberta Open last weekend with a perfect 5/5 score! Keleberda and Jeffrey Xu were 4/4 going into the final round, in which Keleberda won their critical game. Mahan Eshragi dropped his only half point in the final round to finish solo second. Third place was split by Xu, Samuel Hoekman, Maxim Vasic, Yash Darvekar, and Eric Jin at 4/5.
An extra congratulations to 8-year-old Michael Prianichnikov, whose 3/5 score and 2001 performance rating earned a top 10 finish and over 100 CFC rating points.
Thanks to Mike Zeggelaar for directing this 57-player tournament. Full standings here.
