World Junior Chess Championships Chotowa 2010
Mark Crowther - Monday 16th August 2010
The prestigious World Junior Championships took place in Chotowa, Poland 3rd-16th August 2010. Top seed Dmitry Andreikin took first place on tie-break from fellow Russian Sanan Sjugirov. Home player Dariusz Swiercz took the bronze medal. 2nd seed Jon Ludvig Hammer finished in 6th and Parimarjan Negi 11th in the Open event.
The favourite for the Girls event Slovenian Anna Muzychuk also won. She dominated the event until she lost in Round 12 but took her score to 11/13 with a final Round win. Russian Olga Girya took second and Rout Padmini from India the Bronze.
The event has a history going back to 1951 and the first winner Borislav Ivkov. Boris Spassky, Anatoly Karpov, Garry Kasparov and Viswanathan Anand went on to be World Chess Champion. In recent times Shakhriyar Mamedyarov found it worth his while to win it twice. Maxime Vachier-Lagrave won it last year in Puerto Madryn, Argentina.
