Old Timer wins Crewe CC Championship

Harry Gardiner is once again the king of Crewe Chess Club. He has now won the Club Championship for the third time in four years. I reported last year that his performance of 10/11, with a rating of 2119 would be hard to beat. This year he has done even better, scoring 11/12 with a tournament rating of 2157. Division 4 was won by Tommy, Division 3 by Nathan, and Division 2 by Oskar, which means that at the grand old age of 21 Harry is, by some distance, the oldest winner of any section of the championship this year. Congratulations to them all.
