Best in the West for 2019

Posted on 5 September 2019 by Scott

Another successful ‘Best in the West’ 5-round event was held over the Father’s Day weekend (80 players). There was a 5-way tie for first (4.5/5) that included our club’s member and event organiser, Tony Davis, as well as Daniel Gusain. Also, Takshil Kamineni won the rating group 3 prize with a score of 3.0 (ahead of 20 players in his rating group). By my reckoning, there were 17 club members playing in the event.
