Preswtick Airport Congress Games - David G Congalton - 06-11-2011

With less than six months to go until the Prestwick Airport Congress 2012, I thought I would mark the event with a game from the Open section of the 2011 Congress. This one features the Ayrshire Champion Elliot Frew against Mike Surtees from England. Both were graded 2148 at the time of the event.

Elliot’s fourth round win at the 2011 event meant that IM Stephen Burns-Mannion had to win his final round match against Kenny Malkin. A win for Kenny would have seen him take outright first should Elliot fail to win his final game against Ed Spencer.
