The 2023 Asian Seniors has just started in Tagatay, The Philippines. I played in last years event (50+) in Auckland, but did not make the trip this year. One player who did back up from last year was Miles Patterson, who finished 2nd in the 65+ section. His result earned him an FM title (conditional upon rating), and an IM norm. This years 65+ section looks to be about th same strength as last years tournament so he may have chances to earn a 2nd IM norm. On the other hand the 50+ tournament looks to be a bit strong than last year, although a bit small. GM Rogelio Antonio is the top seed and there are 4 other IM's in the field.
