Sairudra Nagvekar wins Rotary All Goa Rapid Rating Open 2022

by Shahid Ahmed - 19/10/2022

14-year-old Sairudra Nagvekar scored an unbeaten 8.5/9 to win Rotary All Goa Rapid Rating Open 2022. Sairudra defeated Devendra Anand Naik in the final round. He was at 8/8 then. Even after a final round loss, Devendra finished second due to better tie-break score. 13-year-old Netra P Savaikar who also scored 8/9 and remained undefeated, was placed third. The top three prizes were ₹11000, ₹8000 and ₹5000 along with a trophy each respectively. The entry fee being only ₹250 encouraged a lot of participation across the state of Goa, 238 to be exact. Rotary Club of Porvorim organized this two-day Rapid Rating event on 24th and 25th September 2022.

Teenagers claim the podium

This is Sairudra Nagvekar's first-ever tournament. In fact, it is also his first podium finish in any format of the game. His first triumph certainly was achieved greatly as he defeated the sole leader, Devendra Anand Naik who was 8/8 in the final round. A win on-demand and that also in the last round is certainly not an easy task. The top four and eight out of the top ten finishers were teenagers. Second runner-up Netra P Savaikar is the only female player to make it in the top 20.
