HA NOI (VNS) – Chess super grandmaster Le Quang Liem had his fifth win at the ongoing Fujairah Masters Tournament in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.

The Vietnamese defeated GM Lupulescu Constantin of Romania yesterday to win one point, bringing his total to five, as many as the leading master, Sergey Fedorchuk, of Ukraine and four other rivals.

Liem now ranks sixth in the contest due to his lower sub-index.

In the next round he will play GM Sandipan Chanda of India. – VNS
