More Rwandans get coveted FIDE rating
Kenya’s KCB Chess Club dominated the three-day Rwanda Open Chess competition that ended on Sunday in Kigali where six locals got the coveted World Chess Federation (FIDE) rating to put the tally of rated Rwandans at 14.
JB Hakizimana (playing black) battled Kenya’s Ricky Sang in the final ninth round but eventually lost the game despite what initially looked like a good start by the former.
