It was a bit rushed as well since this was not classical chess but rather rapids,” he said.At second place was Mathew Luke Aziz from South Africa who collected 6.5 points while Gatson Mapangu was third also with 6.5 points.The under-1700 women category was dominated by Botswana who won the top two positions.Safari Classic: Champion Baldev Chager ready to take the bull by its horn##NAJAVA_MECA_7719158##Banda Natalie collected 8.5 points to win these categories while Maya Otimile had seven points to finish second.Sarah Mukhwana from Kenya earned a gold in women under -2300.
