2011 ANU Open - Day 1

After the first day, GM Zong Yuan Zhao and IM Andras Toth lead the 2011 ANU Open with 4 wins from 4 games. Zhao's tally included wins over Benjamin Harris and Arthur Huynh, while defending champion Toth beat IM George Xie in an important 4th round game. The two leaders meet in the 5th round, which will go a long way to determining the tournament winner.
In the Minor (Under 1600) tournament, local players Fred Litchfield and Matt Radisich are also on 4/4, and just as in the Open, play in tomorrows 5th round.
