Canberra Junior Junta Ikeda is the new Australian Junior Champion, after a comprehensive victory in the Under 18 Open Section which finished this afternoon in Sydney. With 1 round to go Ikeda was 2 points clear of the field, and couldn't be caught, no matter what happened in todays game. Ikeda succeeds last years champion Michael Wei (also from Canberra), meaning that the ACT has taken this prestigious title 2 years running.
In the Under 12 Championship Laurence Matheson (VIC) has at least a share of first place, leading by a full point after 10 rounds. Deborah Ng is in a similar position in the Under 18 Girls Championship, while the Under 12 Championship still has a couple of players in contention for the title.
(Actually I had hoped to bring you the full results for all the events, but the tournament website hasn't been updated yet. So some gentle criticism for the organisers. While the event has been excellent in updating the scores at the end of the day, and the end of the tournament is often busy with prize giving, packing up etc, it is still fair to say that the final standings are the most important. Indeed, when I was the webmaster for the 2006-07 Australian Open, I even updated the last round result table in real time (ie when each game finished) so online spectators knew the exact state of the event at that time. )
*** Update - Complete scores are now available here
Junta Ikeda finished on 10.5/11(!) 2 points ahead of Fedja Zulfic and Gene Nakauci.
Deborah Ng won the U.18 Girls (11.5/13), Laurence Matheson the Under 12's (9.5/11), and Leteisha Simmonds the Girls U/12 (10/11)

Running with an ACT perspective - I'm thinking Megan has won the U14 Girls as Sally will have taken out the U16?

That is correct, also Yi Yuan took the U14 title, as Gene Nakauchi took the U16.
Tamzin finished 3rd overall in the Girls U18 and took 2nd place U18.
ACT also picked up a swag of trophies in the various subsidiary events (Lightning, Rapid and Problem Solving) - too many to remember.

This is a terrific result for Junta who also took the u18 Australian Junior Lightning Title with 11/11 and the Australian Junior rapid with 6.5/7 thus dropping only two half-points in 29 games.
