Chen-en Chung from Taïwan ended 2nd and - thus the best Occidental player - Valerii Krushelnytskyi from Ukraine completed the podium. Both with a 6/7 score. The Korean player ended at a desappointing 4th place, and the Japanese one was 5th; both with a 5/7 score (and with the 2 greatest tiebreaker scores among the players with 5 wins). "Our guy" was Joost Vannieuwenhuyse (2-kyu). Joost won 3 games, among which one against a Danish 4-dan ! His other results were "logical": wins against Danemark, Brazil and Argentina; losses to New-Zealand, Croatia, Switzerland and Norway). He ended 41th out of a field of 60 competitors.
