FINAL RESULTS :
Well it is over and what a competition!
The players from India dominated the event, winning as many as 11 medals, among them 5 gold. Russia and USA took 4 medals each, but none of them was gold. Iran, Bulgaria, Azerbaijan, Germany, Greece, Uzbekistan and Vietnam have one gold medal each. Full list of the winners below.
Mosadeghpour Masoud cruised to the victory in the Open U18 leaving the nearest followers a full point behind. In the Girls U18 WFM Mahalakshmi M lost her game, but she already secured the gold medal with one round to spare.
One of the most dramatic sections was Open U16. After the multiple change of the leaders throughout the event Vogel Roven emerged as the winner. The local hero WIM Tsolakidou Stavroula won five games in a row to claim the gold medal in Girls U16.
Vokhidov Shamsiddin won the Open U14 on better tie-break. WFM Vaishali R was rather convincing in the Girls U14.
The Open U12 finished in a three-way tie on the first place. CM Muradli Mahammad took the gold medal on best tie-break score. Among the Girls U12 WFM Salimova Nurgyul won the medal on the better tie-break.
Both U10 sections ended in a two-way ties where the winners were to be decided on additional criteria. The Indians were the most successful – FM Praggnanandhaa R claimed the gold in Open, while Rakshitta Ravi was best among the Girls.
As was expected, Bharath Subramaniyam H won the gold in the Open U8. After the dramatic finish in the Girls U8, WCM Nguyen Le Cam Hien took the gold medal on better tie-break. (from Website http:www.wycc2015.org )

Results of round 9
I remember the excitement at this stage playing in two WYCC’s. Although I wasn’t playing for a place in my first ever WYCC’s I did want to get at least half way and managed to get 50% plus at both tournaments. Lost only one game and drew and won all my games.
