Klatovy 2010 Open A

Just a brief post to let you know what's happening with our boy in the Czech Republic. As you know in the sixth round Rory had black against Kubecka (2291). Well thinks didn't go his way and he got slaughtered to tell the truth. Won't really know what happened till we hear from Rory. All I can say is that he played well below par. In today's round Rory had a win against Tomas Duran (2236). It was on board eight so can't comment on the game. The top six boards are broadcast live.

This win brings Rory up to fifth place and has him playing Joel Jancarik (2179) on board three tomorrow. So we can follow the action online! Rory is still in with a chance of a prize as he is only half a point behind the leaders with two rounds to go. Fingers crossed that he can keep his cool and get a result.

It's great to see an Irish player performing at this standard! No matter what happens he has done us proud!
