Young Chess Player Shows His Skills
Chess players from all over the state and the world were in town Friday competing in an elite-level tournament.
Texas tech is hosting the SPICE Spring Invitational' Chess Tournament.
Among the players was 13-year-old Darwin Yang. Darwin is a middle-schooler from Plano who is just a few matches short of becoming an International Master.
He lost his match today but he says he's still young and he'll keep playing until he's a chess Grand Master. He also said right now, his age can be an advantage.
"It's not only that I'm young it's usually that these people i play against are usually stronger than me I'd say. So they underestimate me sometimes," Darwin said.
Texas tech chess player Gergely Antal could have become a Grand Master with a win today, but his match ended in a draw, so he'll have to keep trying

Global economics calls for efficient global monetary and fiscal policy, global financial regulation, enforceable global solutions to the global climatic issues, the rapid loss of biodiversity, overfishing, and so on. This just does not happen
