The biggest talent of Czech chess, fourteen-year-old IM Vaclav Finek (2452), emerged as the winner of the 2024 Czech Open. The 2024 edition of the Czech Open in Pardubice, supported by the FIDE Aid Package, took place from July 19-27 and brought together 721 players from 37 countries. The festival included four main 9-round Swiss tournaments with classical time control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A – Pardubice Open<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a major sensation, the main event saw the triumph of 9th seed Vaclav Finek and 24th seed IM Ameya Audi of India. Both pulled off crucial final-round victories over GM Liviu-Dieter Nisipeanu (Romania) and Valentyn Prokofiev (Ukraine), respectively and tied for first place with an excellent score of 7.5\/9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a half-point of Buchholz advantage separated the champion, Vaclav Finek (pictured below, left), from the runner-up, Ameya Audi. As many as four players shared third place scoring (7\/9), with GM Jiri Stocek of the Czech Republic completing the podium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think I played an awesome tournament, and I was especially pleased with the 100% win rate with white pieces,” said Vaclav Finek in a short interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IM Klaudia Kulon (pictured below) from Poland became the best woman of the event. Klaudia achieved a great performance 2509 and finished in 6th place. Four norms of the international title were fulfilled in the main tournament:  the IM norm by Petr Gnojek (CZE), Valentyn Prokofiev, and Vladyslav Fishchuk (both from Ukraine). The norm of WIM goes to Noga Orian (ISR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
