by Klaus Besenthal
10/25/2022 – The World Junior Championships in Sardinia ended on Saturday with a double success for players from Azerbaijan. In the Open, the 18th seed IM Abdulla Gadimbayli (photo) finished with 8.0/11 and shared first place with four other players but won the tournament on tiebreak. In the "Girls" section WGM Govhar Beydullayeva scored 8.5/11 to share first place with Assel Seribay from Kazakhstan but also won because of her better tiebreak-score. | Photos: Przemek Nikiel

World Junior Championship - Open

Before the last round, Adam Kozak from Hungary had 8.0/11 and was half a point ahead of the new World Champion Gadimbayli - and a last-round-draw would have been enough for Kozak to win the title. But the Hungarian faltered just before the finish line when he failed to save a worse but tenable ending against Leon Luke Mendonca from India.
