National Closed Final Round!

This is the final round of the National Closed. Many of the games are hard fought games. Despite talks that this has been one of the weakest National Closed in recent years, it wasn’t plain sailing for NM Jonathan Chuah. There were many games that stretched the former National Master to 4 hours.

This is the top boards playing in the final 9th Round:-

1. Mustafa Kamal Zamhuri vs Jonathan Chuah
2. Chan Tze Wei vs Chow Mon Ben
3. Tan Khai Boon vs Jax Tham
4. Saprin Sabri vs Yeap Eng Chiam

On paper, Jonathan should outclass Mustafa Kamal Zamhuri easily but anything can happen. Let’s wait and see.

My predictions (favoured to win in red )

1. Mustafa Kamal Zamhuri vs Jonathan Chuah (win)
2. Chan Tze Wei vs Chow Mon Ben (win)
   
3. Tan Khai Boon vs Jax Tham (win)
4. Saprin Sabri (win) vs Yeap Eng Chiam

Let’s see if my crystal ball is right
