2nd Annual Washington International, Aug 6 - 11, Washington DC - $26,000 Prize Fund
The Washington International returns for a second year to Rockville, MD from August 6 -11.
Player feedback from last year's event (won by Gata Kamsky) was overwhelmingly positive. The 9-round Swiss A section has $22,000 in guaranteed prizes and will provide an opportunity for players to earn GM and IM norms. Some of the unique features of the tournament are:
- Minimum prizes available for all non-US FIDE rated players
- All Equipment is provided
- Continental Breakfast before morning rounds
- Minimum 2100 FIDE required to play in A section
- Complementary Hospitality room for everyone Monday afternoon, August 5th
- $50 discount for players over age 50 in A section
- B section with same schedule, allowing anyone to play
- 9 GMs and 6 IMs are already registered.
We'd love to have some Canadian players come down this year. More details are available at http://wasingtoninternationalchess.org. If you have any questions you email Mike Regan at washintl@mdchess.com.
