MANILA, Philippines — Youthful Phil Martin Casiguran continued his fairy tale run by holding top seed Grandmaster Evgeny Romanov of Macedonia to a shock 37-move draw of a Sicilain to stay half a point off the pace after six rounds of the Misamis Occidental Philippine International Chess Championship at the AMORAP in a beautiful coastal town of Sinacaban yesterday.
The result kept the 15-year-old FIDE Master unbeaten with 4.5 points on three victories and the same number of draws.
