  Benzol: In the New Zealand Championship 2004/2005 he's just taken 1st place but is not eligible to take the title as he's not a New Zealand resident. The title goes to 2nd place getter Anthony Ker. Tomas Civin was 3rd and Russell Dive was 4th.
Jan-03-08  Karpova: <IM Aleksandar Wohl: This player need no introduction. A veteran of four Olympiads, Alex, aged 44, is now based at France, where he stays with his wife and daughter. He plays professional chess in the French league and for Weilheim in the German league. His best performance was at the Turin Olympiad, where he clocked a rating performance of 2650 with a score of 7/8. He loves biking and collecting mushrooms! He simply loves India as he feels that it has the best food in the world – vegetarian food!> http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail...
