Anna Wang has become the Girls' U13 champion with 5 points out of 7. Congratulations to Chantelle and to Anna!

In other events at the Championships, the youngest participating Wang sister, Eva, has finished in second place among the U8 Girls with 4/6. In the Major Open, Chantelle has improved her position, standing on 3 points after six rounds, and her brother James has also pulled up to 50% after six rounds in the British Championships itself.
