Pity there are no norms available, they needed 1 more foreign player

Eh? I thought you needed players from two different federations from your own, which Clement has already played against (ENG & RUS) with a CRO to follow. Is this not enough?

Just checked the FIDE regulations. Seems there is a maximum number of players from one federation that is allowed, which has been exceeded. Pity, Clement seems to be in excellent form!

That's some schedule - 14 rounds in 7 days!

Final round opponent withdrew so that's my tournament over. No norm due to technicalities, but my TPR would have been high enough over 12 rounds.
Incredibly happy with my best ever performance, all games were hard fought and I feel like I've learned a lot from the strong opposition there.

Well played FM Sreeves.
It's unfortunate that you don't get an IM norm for such a good performance but it must do your FIDE rating some good and push you towards the 2400 rating you need as part of the title requirements.
Pleased to see all the late night coaching you got in Czech Republic, from GM Groves and FM Tate has paid off in results.
