GM Michael Adams was the sole leader after defeating IM Richard Pert in the penultimate round. In Sunday's morning round he made short work of GM Stephen Gordon to clinch his seventh British Championship with 7½/9. Jovanka Houska is the British Women's Champion with 6/9 — her ninth, and a record.
GM Danny Gormally will provide a detailed recap in his final report soon.
Correction: An earlier version of this post said that Adams won by a full point. In fact, David Howell reached 7.0/9.
