The Guyana Chess Federation (GCF) successfully staged the first day of its public exhibition series on Saturday 24th at the Giftland Mall, Turkeyen.
This was confirmed by an official release from the association. According to the correspondence, “The highlight of the day was the simultaneous chess match where ten of Guyana’s top juniors took on FIDE Master Anthony Drayton, who was Guyana’s top scorer for the men’s team in the recently concluded FIDE Chess Olympiad in India. Drayton played impressively, taking on the skilled juniors all at the same time. Kyle Couchman was the only junior player who managed a win against Drayton. Twelve-year-old Alexander Zhang and Jessica Callender also secured draws against Drayton.”
