Over in chess, Sander Severino, the most be-medalled Filipino with a quadruple gold haul in Surakarta, Indonesia last year, led the country’s strong start as he paced the rapid event of the men’s PI division along with two others including countryman Jasper Rom with perfect two points at the Royal University.

Darry Bernardo and Menandro Redor likewise shared the lead in the men’s B2B3 class as well as Cheyzer Mendoza in the women’s PI section.

The final four rounds of the rapid event are slated today (Sunday). The standard event is scheduled from Monday to Wednesday while the blitz is on Thursday.

The James Infiesto-mentored squad is out to surpass, if not match, its 10gold harvest in Surakarta.
