Aug-09-12    GrahamClayton: Griffiths achieved a performance rating of 2526 at the recent Paris City Championships, where he won the prize for the best performance by a junior: http://www.kilkennypeople.ie/news/l... Apr-09-13    JustAnotherPatzer: I only knew of Griffiths 'on paper' during the 2011 British C'ship, a tourney i followed closely. I recall playing through some of his games at the time imagining him as an old hand, only now do i discover he was a junior. An impressive talent.
