Seniors 65 & Seniors 50 at ASEAN+ Age-Group Championships

While there has long been a category for Seniors in the ASEAN+ Age-Group Championships, this year it has been aligned to FIDE competition and is now played as Seniors 65+ and Seniors 50+.

There are seven entries in Seniors 65+ and it is played as a seven round robin or six games with a very welcome bye while there are sixteen entries in Seniors 50+.

In Seniors 50+, Myanmar’s Khin Ko is on fire as he leads by a point with 4.5/5 over Singaporeans IM Chan Peng Kong and Wong Ngiam Yee and Indonesian Guntoro Sugianto.
