Suede Sisters

After the Cua Sisters, here come the Suede Sisters!!

A reader sent an info about a big development in the 2009 National Age Group. Heavy favorites Chardine Cheradee Camacho and Christy Lamiel Bernales lost to Akiko Suede and sister Mikee in the final rounds in the Girls U-16 Category!!

Whew! Oh, chess.

So here are the top three finishers in the said category (unofficial and unverified):

Champion - Akiko Suede
2nd - Mikee Suede
3rd - Judith Pineda

I personally saw Akiko Suede during the 1^st Bangkal Rapid Tournament in Makati last year. Oh, boy, she’s got the looks! Beautiful indeed.

Calling NCFP!! Take care of this beautiful young lady. With her looks and wits, she could help promote chess in the Philippines – ala GM Alexandra Kosteniuk.

Congratulations, too, to Mikee and Judith!!
