Kai - Loss

Kai's opponent today, Zheming Zhang, is very highly rated South of the border. I'm sure, on a trip down to Middlesboro last year, that I heard that he was receiving coaching from IM Jonathan Hawkins.

Going by the time it took for the result to appear I'm guessing they were close to being the last pair to finish in their section and that Kai put up a good fight.

Zheming has been tipped as a hot prospect to be a future GM. I don't think I'll be a million miles away when I say that if Kai wants to, he'll achieve the same. The question is which of these two under 11's will get there first.
