Bagaturov and Esen share honors at Thessaloniki Open

GM Giorgi Bagaturov (Georgia) and IM Baris Esen (Turkey) both made quick draws in the final round of the Thessaloniki Open to share the first place with 7.0 points each. Bagaturov was awarded with the winner’s trophy on better additional criteria.

Greek junior Antonios Pavlidis won another game to finish clear third, with 6.5 points. Unfortunately, this was not sufficient for the GM norm, although he has beaten three GMs in this tournament. Pavlidis had an IM norm in his pocket prior to the last round. We will certainly hear more about him in the near future.

Untitled Ilya Sidorenko, FM Miroslaw Perdek, WIM Anna Burtasova and GM Vasile Sanduleac are sharing 4-7th place with 6.0 points. Also, Greek player Katerina Pavlidou achieved WIM norm.
