| Notes: |
| Partial results available. This was a handicap tournament, with 3 knockout rounds to reduce 43 players to 6. These 6 in the 'poule finale' played an all-play-all. The 2 top players (for whom scores are given) were both in class 2 and can thus be compared. Third was A. Clerc (class 1) with 6/10; fourth was Sauphar (class 4) with 4.5/10. Without knowing the classes of their oponents, however, we cannot rate these two scores in comparison to the two class 2 players. The 'grand tournoi' began in Jan. or Feb. but the 'poule finale' started on Mar. 4 and ended in the first few days of April. |
