The 2009 Australian Open Chess Championships will be held at the Manly-Warringah Rugby Leagues Club in Sydney. It will be played from the 2nd-11th of January (shorter than the Juniors! Although one could argue that adults are 'busier'). This tournament is a an 11-Round FIDE-rated event. According to the website, the top seed is Mark Chapman (2402).
This tournament also encompasses an Under 1600 Tournament and the Australian Open Lightning Championship.
I may report halfway through this tournament and will have a full report at the end of the tournament.
