The 1st Florendo Zamora Memorial Chess Tournament held last Sunday, December 3, 2023 at the Lamberto Macias Sports and Cultural Center in Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental drew a massive crowd of more than 200 participants, who joined and played all in the spirit of remembering a local chess icon, the man behind the Negros Club 64 - Master Flor - as we all know him.

Tanjay duo Raphael Iyas and Brett Pert Catipay claimed the 4th and 5th spots, while Silliman's Yael Gonzales took the Best Game award.

Bayawan City's John Welbert Adalia bagged 3rd spot, while Bosconian Lorenzo Gabriel Geñoso took 4th and Lee Arzhel Partosa clinging in on the 5th spot. Juan Manuel Gonzales won the Best Game award, while Mary Ai Sitti Otod received the Top Kiddie Female award.
