if a chinese chess master get last in the competition he still can represent the country cos he is a master!!! ths is singapore rule

any example happened before? Sounds quite interesting, please share for fun =)

I seldom notice those things, but to my memory, even a Master needs to pass the selection tournament at least.

I understand that Xiang Zong has set the rule and criteria for selecting chess players to represent Singapore.In order to avoid any ambiguity which may affect the morale of the chess players and the representives,strictly adhere to the selecting rule is necessary.

A player's current form is very important during tournaments.
