IM Craig PritchettCongratulations to IM Craig Pritchett who won the Gold Medal for the top score on Board 1 of the European Senior Team Championship. Craig's score of 7/9 was a 2505 rating performance.

Scotland finished ahead of seeding with 20.5/36 in 11th position of the 36 teams. The Scotland senior squad is currently enjoying the best results of any level of chess. Individual scores: Pritchett 7/9, Peter Jamieson 3/8, Alastair White 2.5/7, Alan Borwell 3/6, Douglas McKerracher 5/6 (a fine debut and narrowly missing out on the board medal). There is a video report of the prizegiving (and Peter Jamieson doing the tango!) at chessdom.com.
