The details for the 2022 O2C Doeberl Cup have been posted at www.doeberlcup.com.au It will be held over the Easter weekend, which is 14-18 April 2022.
The most significant change from this years event, is that the rating limits for each of the tournament have been simplified. For the Premier, anyone with a FIDE or ACF rating above 1800 is eligible (plus title holders), while to get into the Major (under 2000), you need an ACF or FIDE rating above 1400 (and be blow ACF 2000 as well). In part this is to simplify the eligibility rules, but it is also to balance the numbers in each tournament. Entry fees are unchanged from this year, and the prize pool is still over $20,000
You can now enter at the tournament website, and 11 players have already made sure of their places for next year.
