Farrukh Amonatov: «Moscow open helped to discover Swiss!»
The leader of the national team of Tagikistan has been living in Moscow for a long time, but for many years his success was connected with rapid chess till 2005 when he won Moscow Open that had just been included on the chess calendar.
Whatever people say, the composition of players of that tournament was not that weak: 209 par-ticipants, over 20 Grand Masters, hot contest till the very last round and a strong “golden” victo-ry of Farrukh in the last round. It is interesting that Amonatov is the only chess player of three first winners is included on the list of ten Elo-favourites of the tournament 2008. And it is quite probable that he will try to repeat his success of 3 years ago. Now he has an experience of playing at the highest level!

Alexander Lastin: «You may go farther and fare worse!»
The Grand Master from Zheleznovodsk who dominated in Moscow Swiss tournaments during his studying in Russian State Academy of Physical Culture could not but win at Moscow Open at least once. He needed two tries to achieve it. At the very first tournament he was leading from start almost to the very end, but…he lost to Amonatov. But the next tournament was really his! Sasha’s superiority over his opponents was obvious in every game, and it is quite natural that Lastin was the one to get the Cup from Karpov and Bersenev. And he is full of ambitious plans now - especially after unexpected failure that happened last year…

Evgeniy Najer
“Moscow Open can become the best in the world!”
In 2007 Evgenij Najer, a 30-year old Grand Master from Moscow became an unconditional winner of the third tournament Moscow Open. He did not leave any chance to opponents having started to crush them from the very beginning – six out of six! Only an excessive peacefulness at the tape prevented Zhenya from finishing the tournament all by himself. If you remember, in 2006 Najer was also one of the leaders (only a hurtful defeat by Grachev two rounds prior to the end prevented him from struggling for the main prize); he can definitely be considered to be one of the most successful participants of Moscow Open.. In a few days Moscow player will go on his marks for the third time!
