He bagged the title after finishing with nine points, followed by Filipino player Loyola Rolletson Jr with eight points. Indian player Akshith Saravanan finished third with seven points. Organised by the Qatar Chess Association (QCA) and the Doha Youth Centre, the internationally rated tournament brought together 70 male and female players. The event aims to promote chess in Qatar and provide a strong competitive platform for players during the holy month of Ramadan. The championship witnessed strong participation from internationally rated players. The competition was conducted under the Swiss system over nine rounds, with a time control of three minutes per player plus a two-second increment per move. FIDE laws were applied, with strict enforcement of a “zero tolerance” policy regarding electronic devices to ensure the integrity of the competition. Among Qatari players, Ryan Mohammed Fardous was crowned Best Qatari Player, while Layan al-Qassabi was named Best Qatari Female Player. The event was held as part of joint efforts between the Doha Youth Centre and the QCA to promote the game and raise the standard of players in the country. QCA executive director Hamad al-Tamimi expressed his satisfaction with the distinguished atmosphere of this edition and the level of participation across various age groups, including members of the Qatari national teams. He stressed that the QCA is keen to build partnerships with various entities and institutions in the country and to organise a number of tournaments to spread chess culture within the community.
