Hats off to Jhayvie Jamito for garnering the 9th spot, after scoring five points at the ChessBro Rising Star 18U that happened in Robinson's Galleria, March 15.

Jamito scored the crucial point in the last round, outlasting his opponent in the end part via come-from-behind victory; thus securing his well-fought place.

The RTU Chess Team is proud of your success!
