Cute Alekhine Nouri of Taguig City, Philippines
is the youngest FIDE Master at the age of just 7 years old! He made chess
history by being the youngest and possibly the brightest chess player of his
time. He made his impressive chess tactics known at the recent 14th
ASEAN + Age Group Chess Championships of 2013 in a Standard Competition at the
Imperial Mae Ping Hotel in Chiang Mai, Thailand last June 13, 2013.
Alekhine’s dad remarked on his son’s wonderful
talent, "Alekhine Nouri got his (outright)
Fide Master title at 14th ASEAN + Age Group Chess Championships, making the
record of the youngest Fide Master of Philippine Chess, thank you Lord for all
the blessing,"
National
Chess Federation of the Philippines (NCFP) Chairman/President Prospero Pichay
Jr on the other hand was also proud of Alekhine and all Filipino chess players
who are making their mark locally and internationally, “Filipino woodpushers
have once again shown their excellence in the field of chess.”
To
Alekhine, good luck, and may you bring your family and our nation pride and glory
in chess! –Tarrasch Knight Chess Club
