Totanera performance this year has been quiet except for third place overall in Juan Miguel Ibarra is well under way to obtain the title of Fide Master.
Remember that his brother Jose Carlos Ibarra has won another Grand Master norm, so if nothing happens soon we will have in Totana a chess grandmaster, who for personnel to understand it would be like a Villa (soccer), a Almagro ( tennis) or pump Navarro (basketball), but in chess.
Also in the near future will play for the title of Absolute Champion of Spain.
GOOD LUCK.
