Hari Krishna to play in Dos Hermanas tournament

NEW DELHI, MARCH 31. P. Hari Krishna will be looking to add a third major title in succession when he opens his campaign in elite field of the Dos Hermanas chess tournament at Dos Hermanas, in Spain on Friday.

Alexie Dreev, runner-up in 2003, will head the 10-player field that includes two of the current teenage sensations, World's youngest GM Sergey Karjakin and Teimour Radjabov.

Hari, after winning the World junior title in November and joint-champion with Mikhail Gurevich in the Bermuda Open earlier this year, has been waiting for invitations for some of the high category tournaments. He finally made it to this event by default after Azerbaijan's Shakhriyas Mamedyarov pulled out earlier this month.

The competitors for this round-robin Category 16 event are: 1. Alexie Dreev (Russia, 2704); 2. Teimour Radjabov (Azerbaijan, 2667); 3. Zurab Azmaiparashvili (Georgia, 2662); 4. Lenier Dominguez (Cuba, 2661); 5. Miguel Illescas (Spain, 2633), 6. P. Hari Krishna (2632); 7. Oleg Korneev (Russia, 2602); 8. Sergey Karjakin (Ukraine, 2599), 9. Alexander Rustemov (Russia, 2598); 10. Ruben Felgaer (Argentina 2588).
