Hastings 1926/27
Compiled by suenteus po 147
--*--

The seventh annual Hastings Chess Congress met at the end of the year of 1926 to conduct a round robin tournament. Ten players were invited to compete, including Savielly Tartakower, Richard Réti, Edgar Colle, George Alan Thomas, Frederick D Yates, George Marshall Norman, Edward G Sergeant, Reginald Pryce Michell, Victor Berger, and Alfred Teller. The new year's tournament saw a three way tie for first among Tartakower, Réti, and Colle.

The final standings and crosstable:

=1st Tartakower 6/9 * 0 = 0 = 1 1 1 1 1

=1st Réti 6/9 1 * 1 0 = = 0 1 1 1

=1st Colle 6/9 = 0 * 1 1 = = 1 = 1

4th Yates 5.5/9 1 1 0 * 0 = 1 1 0 1

5th Norman 5/9 = = 0 1 * 0 0 1 1 1

6th Sergeant 4.5/9 0 = = = 1 * 1 0 0 1

9th Thomas 3/9 0 0 = 1 0 1 = 0 * 0

10th Michell 1/9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 *
