Cristhian Cruz clear first at Barbera del Valles 2013

Peruvian GM Cristhian Cruz maintained the good form he showed at the beginning of the XXXVI Abierto Internacional de Barberá del Vallés to finish in clear first place.

The tournament was played on 4th – 12th July at the chess club of this Catalan city, C/ Torre d´en Gorgs Nº 40. 9 rounds of Swiss system pairings were the rule in the main group.

Cruz finished on 7.5/9 to leave his closest followers half a point behind. A final draw against Indian IM Shardul Gagare was enough to secure first prize in this strong open. His rating performance of 2702 was enough to earn 22 points for the next FIDE rating list.

First seed Isan Ortiz and local Marc Narciso finished on second and third place, respectively, both on 7/9 points.

Francesc Nieto finished first in the B Group, while Francesc Garnica was the winner in the C Group.
