White have just played 41.Rg3+. The result is given as a draw, but the correct must be 1-0, or have I overlooked something? What can black do after 41.- Kh7 42.Nf7 with the threat Rh4+ ?

  Appaz: Confirmed today that Zhigalgo won. Just one of the usual transmission errors.

Good start of tournament with 3,5 points of 4 for the Zhigalko brothers.

  Appaz: The last half of the tournament was a little thougher for them. Both brothers ended on 5 1/2 points, and both had a TPR on 2538.

I'm not sure if they achieved a GM-norm though.
