Le Quang Liem missed the championship

In the final decisive match for the Capblanca chess championship this morning, May 22, chess player Le Quang Liem had to lose to Ivanchuk (Ukraine).

After 10 games, Quang Liem had the same 6.5 points as Ivanchuk but had a lower secondary index so he had to finish second.

Although he came in second, Quang Liem has become a world super grandmaster.

Although he did not achieve the expected results, with the Elo score accumulated at this tournament (2706.8), Quang Liem has risen to the top 40 players in the world. This score will be considered for official recognition by the World Chess Federation (FIDE) in early July.

After the Capblanca tournament in Cuba, as planned, Quang Liem will leave for Paris during the day to prepare to participate in the French team championship in the Evry Grand Roque club jersey on May 26.
