The former US Military base, the Subic Bay Freeport, Olongapo City
The Asian Continental Championship in Subic is arguably, the strongest tournament that will be held in the country and Asia pacific this year. I salute the chess officials of the Philippines for bringing this super tournament in our country. Scrolling down the list of participants for the first time and see the long list of GMs can actually makes one gasps in awe. I did! For the record, this years edition of the championship will feature 40 GMs (wow!) from every corner of the region. The kid that makes it all happen, GM Wesley So (2641) is the second seed, and definitely one of the top favorite to win the tourney along with GM Sasikiran Krishnan (2682) of India, the number one seed. Other first timer in the country are Wesley's fellow prodigies, GMs Negi Parimarjan (2592) of India and Hou Yifan (2590) of China. The second highest rank player in the country, the always reliable and the "Old Guard" of Philippine Chess, GM Eugenio Torre (2561) is seeded 14th.
