This year in Velden, where the Greek delegation has been traditionally successful, three of our players took medals: Lina Charakoglou won for the third consecutive year the 1st Ladies Trophy in the Masters Division, where Costas Chiotinis won the consolation. Another strong greek player, Alekos Deliakis, made it to the semifinals of the Champion Division. In another international tournament in Cyprus at the same period, Nektarios Sarafidis made it to the final of Advanced Consolation.
