The IM sections brought success for young Chinese girls as two of them, Wang Doudou and Xu Huahua, performed WIM norms causing hard times in all games to their male opponents.
Wang, Doudou /CHN/ 1st WIM-norm
Xu, Huahua /CHN/ (3rd WIM norm)
They play far much better than their present ratings. IM Galyas Miklos (HUN) as favorite played at high level and his victory was convincing and unquestionable. He should play again in the GM section instead.
Wang, Xinyue (CHN) and IM Galyas, Miklos (HUN/ game
Colorful play of IM Lengyel Bela (HUN), formerly three times Champion of Budapest was reminiscent of those old times.

Ciuro Munoz, Ricardo /ESP/
Krstulovic Alex (8, HUN) who is already a FIDE-Master being U8 European Champion was equal opponent for all adults. He could have won even more if he had played slower.
