The games were highly exciting. The winner of the competition was determined only in the final round. It was Kacper Grela, who won the title of International Champion of Czechia. The young resident of Bolesławiec, a TOP Bolesławiec player and a student of Primary School No. 4, once again demonstrated his class. He scored 8 out of the 9 possible points in the tournament.
