No-BBQ-Blitz

As having a BBQ in the park was still not permitted by Police, we met for a nice blitz tournament in our venue.

Rainer was the rating favourite and managed to win the tournament.
Thanks to him especially for feeding our library and the prices for the winners!

Werner Brunner is Blitz Champion 2017-2018

The winner of the 4th and final round of the Letzi Blitz Championship 2017-2018 is Werner Brunner. Congratulations! Playing outside in the fresh air in Zurich was good for him. He went undefeated in the double round robin tournament with time control 5 minutes + 2 seconds per move. Kurt Glatzfelder came second and Roger Loup third. Many thanks to all who played!

This was the second victory and third podium for Werner. He dominated the blitz championship this season and won his first Letzi blitz title. Congratulations!
