Hungarian Open 2024 summary



Last weekend, we held the last Bonus tournament of the year in Budapest. The tournament attracted entries from many countries, with a record field of 75 players, and there were enough competitors in each section to make for a close battle.

Stanislaw Frejlak (PL) 1p against Dominik Bővíz (HU) 6d

Dominik Bővíz 6d versus Yuze Xing (DE) 6d

No one on the top boards went undefeated, so it was really exciting to see how it would turn out.
In particular, the first day of the tournament brought a lot of surprises: Yuze Xing 6d, a young player from Germany, won against Stanislaw Frejlak 1p, Dominik Bővíz 6d won against Pál Balogh 7d, while Benjamin Dréan-Guénaïzia 7d had suffered a double loss to Csaba Mérő 6d and Pál Balogh 7d, which made the tournament very interesting.
