A wide-open battle for the top honor is set when the 4Knights Chess Cafe Promotional Rapid Chess 1950 and below Non-Master Tournament gets underway on May 19 at the Padilla Nha Avenue Bagong Nayon 2, Barangay San Isidro in Antipolo City.

Mark Joseph "MJ" Barbosa, younger brother of US based Grandmaster Oliver Barbosa, looms as the player to beat in the five round Swiss system, 15 minutes time control format owing to his big wins in the past local tournaments.

"We do this to promote chess in the grass-roots level and discover future chess masters," said Chief Operations Officer and Vice President Jessie Pendre of Alpha One Extreme Solution.
