World Open 2025

June 26, 2025 - July 06, 2025

     Congratulations to 17-year-old GM Bharath Sbramaniyam H for finishing Clear First in the Open Section, winning the $20,500 prize--  one of the youngest players ever to win this event!

   1.  Tanitoluwa Adewumi      IM Norm   

   2.  Rose Atwell                   WIM Norm

   3.  Sharvesh Deviprasath   IM Norm

   4.  Gabriel Petesch            IM Norm
