IM Chanda finishes second in Leinfelden chess

International Master Sandipan Chanda of India finished runner-up in the Leinfelden Open Chess Tournament in Germany recently. A student of Goodricke National Chess Academy, Calcutta Sandipan Chanda scored 6.5 points from nine rounds and remained unbeaten in the Grandmaster Tournament.

Chanda received a cash prize of DM 1500 for finishing second. GM Schmatz Ronald took the top spot with seven points. Three Grandmasters - P Enders, Philip Sclosser and Haba - were placed joint 3rd with 6.0 points each. Chanda faced five Grandmasters in the meet, but his final GM norm still eluded the 18-year-old Calcutta youngster, who already has two GM Norms under his belt. Earlier, last week, Sandipan Chanda had won the International Sclosspark Open at Wiesbaden, Germany.
