2019 Gufeld Cup


The 2019 CAWA Gufeld Cup was held at Southern Suburbs Chess Club this Easter weekend, 21-22 April.

Congratulations to the winners, Tim Hare & WFM Kathryn Hardegen (5.0/6). Dominador Andador finished 3rd on 4.5/6.

The Rating Group A (1400-1899 ACF) prize was won by Nedeljko Tomic (3.5/6), and the Rating Group B (Under 1400 ACF) prize was shared by Mark Howard, Steve Milovanovic and Mike Nairn (2.5/6).

Well done to all participants!

While the field was not as big as we had hoped for, the quality of the chess was very high and all players seemed to enjoy their weekend. We hope that all participants will join us once again for the WA Championships which begin on Sunday 26th May, also at Southern Suburbs Chess Club.
