The Iloilo City native Senador collected 6.5 points on five wins, one loss and three draws. He was in a group of players with 6.5 points along with 5th placer IM Marcos Llaneza Vega of Spain and 6th placer Baining Chen of China.
But Senador, who beat Candidate Master Bharat Arun of India, took the fourth position by virtue of his superior tie break points.

IM Zhou Yang-fan of England, Jinshi Bai and Li Bo of China shared the top spot with seven points each. IM Zhou dealt IM Oliver Dimakiling of the Philippines, Li toppled
United States chess master Alberto Rivera of the Philippines and Bai nipped Chen.
With the setbacks, the Mandaluyong ace Rivera finished with six points, a good for a share of 7th to 10th place, while the Davao City pride Dimakiling remains at 5.5 points to landed at 11th to 16th place.
