48 players from 16 countries (AUT, BEL, CAN, DEN, ENG, GER, HUN, IND, ISR, NOR, RSA, SCO, SRB, TUR, USA, VIE ) arrived in Budapest this month to compete for FIDE Ratings and for Title norms. There were five groups of different levels as usual.

All events were played in the tournament halls of the Hungarian Chess Federation that always gives a friendly atmosphere for the competitions.

GM:
Tough fight but no title norms at the GM section.

Finally Esen Baris (TRK) and Shankland Samuel were closest to GM level.
