After four rounds in the Guyana Chess Federation’s Third Grand Prix Chess Tournament, which moved off on Saturday, Ethan Lee and Sasha Shariff have taken the lead in their open and female categories, respectively.
Lee is on 3.5 points after defeating Odit Rodrigues, Loris Nathoo, Roberto Neto and drawing with Candidate Master (CM) Ronuel Greenidge.
Lee managed to defeat Loris Nathoo after gaining the upper hand in a chaotic duel as the two players raced to checkmate. For Nathoo, it was the amassed pawn storm towards Lee’s defensive line.
