Adhiban has won the tournament. Any news on norms achieved?
Deimante Cornette I believe.

Nodirbek seems to have got a GM norm.
That's his forename?
So it is. Nodirbek Abdusattorov.

GM norm for Sarin I believe. You'll have to get used to names like Nodirbek Abdusattorov and Ramesh Praggnanandhaa. While they're this young, you might get away with first names! They look rather good players.

His title is still awaiting ratification from the slow-moving Fide.

I seem to have missed a rating prize on tie-break. I'm not complaining as I never expected to do that well!
