National Closed - Round 8 & 9

I am at DATCC at Kompleks wilayah KL during this round 9. I have been here since round 8 to watch the event closely. I am so anxious to know who is leaving with the NWM and NM title this year. Though Lim Zhuo Ren look convincing to win the NM title since he is in the lead with 7 points out of 8 rounds, but he needs to be careful and win his next round or else Abel Yap is just behind with 6.5 points might catch up.

Let me update the readers with the results of round 7 first of Pahang players. Mohd Khair lost third in a row, and this time to NM Edward Lee, while Sumant lost to Saprin. Sharif Zaki won against Ahmad Faizal, and Asman lost Shyreyes Subramiam, making a blunder in a good position.

While the Ladies, both Farhana and Nur Sabrina lost their games.

Round 8, Mohd Khair defeated Masrin Erowan from Sabah, Sumant won against Yeoh Li Tian, Asman drew against Amir. And Sharif lost to Shahbudin Soki.

At the moment that I am writing this, Mohd Khair won his 9th round game against Tan Ken Wei, leaving the National Closed with 6 points from 9 rounds. Sharif Mohd Zaki also won against his opponent from Penang and leaving the National Closed with 3.5 points from 9 rounds. Asman and Sumant still playing.

The National Closed (W) section, Sabrina lost her 9th game, and Farhana won her final rounds. While Sarika looks strong to win her last game against Latifah Kaiyisah.

What a surprised, as I was in the middle of updating this, NM Edward just won against Lim Zhuo Ren!!!!

Pictures will be updated soonest I am back at home...
