The program of events to follow
Yuriy Kuzubov has had a near perfect start with 3.5/4
Alexander Kovchan has also had a great start with 3.0/4
In spite of the highly controversial (and ridiculous) decision to keep her games secret,
Mariya Muychuk is not to blame, and this is exactly the type of event she needs in order
to ready herself for a match against an objectively stronger opponent
Yuriy Kryvoruchko is the top-seed of the competition with 2711 FIDE, but several of his rivals
are no stranger to the 2700-club
Alexander Areschenko topped the scales at 2720 a couple of years ago. In round one, he
overpowered Sergey Fedorchuk in impressive style.

The women's event started two days later, and thus has two fewer rounds played thus far
Among the top two players with 2.0/2 is 17-year-old Iulija Osmak...
...and Myroslava Hrabinska.
It has been a blood event with only one draw out of the first twelve games. While Olga Kalinina
lost her game above against Osmak, she also scored a win against Soloviova.
