                    [Summary] => Athletics and chess, two different sports under the same leadership, also share a common goal in the SEA Games this year: Win as many gold medals as possible.


The country’s biggest source of medals when it comes to the SEA Games, athletics is once again expected to deliver and boost the Filipinos’ bid for the overall crown.


Just the same, chess is tipped to do well in the SEA Games as it tries to surpass a three-gold haul during the 2003 edition of the biennial event in Vietnam.

                    [Summary] => On a day of changing fortunes, it was International Master Chito Garma who emerged as solo leader after getting the full point against NM Alex Milagrosa in the ninth round of the Grand Finals of the National Chess Championship at the 17th floor (Penthouse) of the All Asia Capital Center in Paseo de Roxas, Makati City.


Garma, who disposed of Milagrosa in 34 moves of a French Defense game, was one of only three winners in the men’s hostilities in the ninth round, as Grandmasters Eugene Torre and Joey Antonio failed to make any headway and settled for fighting draws.
