Still no report of the final round?! Poor work by the organizing committee. Just goes to show who is who in chess marketing. China has much to learn from USA still.
Not a fair comment. You say China has to learn from the U.S. Did you see the Olympics? Did you see the other tournaments China has hosted? Is this the best you can do is criticize the last round… a common problem in many tournaments.
In addition, that is not China’s main site.
The full account of the last round and closing ceremony is detailed in the Event Pofile for 9th October. However, the font is a bit too small to read it.
Sorry, the Event Profile page is:-

China just got into chess and has already organized more hihg quality tournaments than USA in 150 years.
When was the last time thast a high quality tournament was held in USA. Was it in the 1970’s or 1960’s???
