The 25th European Club Cup was held on 4-10th October in Ohrid, Fyrom. The Russian club Economist-SGSEU-1 from Saratov won all seven matches and convincingly claimed the first place with perfect 14 points. This compact team was represented by Grandmasters Alekseev, Eljanov, Tomashevsky, Bu, Ni, Moiseenko, Andreikin and Roiz. The Championship was very exciting, but with 50+ teams competing, it should be definitely extended to nine rounds.
Mika Yerevan, featuring mostly members of the Olympiad winning Armenian national team, reached clear second place with 12 points. It is interesting that last year the same team had Magnus Carlsen and Boris Gelfand on the top two boards, yet they finished on tied 7-13th place.
Third place was shared by the last year champions Ural Svedrdlovskaya, this time playing without Teimour Radjabov and Gata Kamsky, and SPbChFed from Sankt-Peterburg, but Ural took bronze medal on better tiebreak score. Peter Svidler from SPbChFed scored 5.5/7 on the first board, for the highest rating performance of the competition - 2920.
