Marius Constante added a feather in his cap after sweeping the seven round 21st Noypi x Robinson's Magnolia Kids 13 under FIDE-Rated Rapid Chess Tournament on Saturday, September 20.
The eight-year-old Novaliches, Quezon City resident Constante, prevailed over Zyler Dayo, Elisha Caleb Lim, Keith Aldridge Gascon, Zachary Villavicencio, Ricky Ryan Besco, Ivan Cedric Licu and Tito Lorenzo Balibalos.
"I dedicate this to Mama (Mary Ann Zabanal Constante) because she told me she wanted a medal as my gift to her this Christmas," he said.
Last June, chess enthusiasts in the Metropolis were treated to an unforgettable display of skill, determination, and resilience as Marius was the star of the show, putting on a breathtaking performance.
He faced his experienced and older rival in the 2 day event of the Metropolitan Chess Club Standard chess tournament.
Marius finished 8th overall with 5.0 points in seven outings on account of five wins and two losses.
It was sportsman Jojo Legaspi and FIDE Master Noel Dela Cruz who provided the utmost support to Marius' training.-Marlon Bernardino-
