Njobvu impresses at Olympiad

In fact had he not been too carried away against a lowly-rated opponent from Mauritania in the last round, he would have been crowned a chess master.  However, there are still hopes that after doing so well in 72 percent of his games, the world chess body, FIDE, would want to honour Njobvu.

 He was the only Botswana player not to take a point from Mauritania.  Nevertheless, his overall display was quite satisfactory. Playing on Board 3 Njobvu (2217) impressed with famous draws against top-sides, Russia and Japan.
