The world youth rapid chess winner secured five wins and four draws to top the category with seven points.

Among his matches, the No 2 seed defeated No 1 Nguyen Duc Hoa of the Military in the seventh game, which was one of key points to help him win the title.

The other reasons might be the absence of national leading Grandmasters such as Le Quang Liem of HCM City and Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son from Kien Giang, who skipped the tournament for personal reasons.

His teammate Pham Chuong came second while Nguyen Hoang Nam of the Military was at third.

It was Khoi’s second local title after his winning at the National Chess Team Championship in July.

On the women’s side, Vo Thi Kim Phung of the hosts claimed the gold with seven points after nine matches. She was followed by Bach Ngoc Thuy Duong and Nguyen Thi Thanh An, both of HCM City.
