Another draw for Alan Tate today, takes him to 1 1/2 points. His tournament rating performance so far is 2362. The sixth round draw for tomorrow pairs him with the Roumanian Teodor Senetia. Alan has black. Monday is a rest day.

There are at least 3 GM's taking part who will be playing in tournaments in Scotland this summer. Top of those three after five rounds is Arkadij Naiditsch with 4/5, followed by Sabino Brunello 3/5 and then Sarunas Sulskis on 2 1/2 from a possible 5.

Round 6 pairings for the three are

6 13 GM Naiditsch Arkadij 2702 v GM Sokolov Ivan 2653 44
67 172 GM Holzke Frank 2508 v GM Brunello Sabino 2587 108
89 101 GM Sulskis Sarunas 2596 v IM Enchev Ivajlo 2432 211
Alan's continues to do rather well after 7 rounds. Anyone know what needs to happen now before he gets the overdue IM title he clearly deserves?
Well, I believe he has to get his FIDE rating to 2400 or above, and the IM title is his.
Another good result for Alan today. Looks like he managed to get yet another IM norm!
