Malaysia Won Both Final Round 11 Matches!

3 October 2010, Khanty-Mansiysk – Latest news is that Malaysia had won both matches in the Open and Women’s category in the round 11 of the 39th Chess Olympiad in Siberia, Russia.

Malaysia vs Bahrain (Open): Malaysia won 2.5-1.5, the wins coming from boards  2 and 4 where IM Mok and supersub, Gregory Lau gave us the important board points and FM Peter Long made sure of Malaysia’s win over Bahrain. A bit puzzling was the early loss by IM Mas Hafizulhelmi on board 1.
