By drawing his round 8 game against GM Samy Shoker, Olivier Kenta Chiku-Ratté managed to score an IM norm (regardless of the result of round 9)!
For the last round, he will be playing on the first board against GM Edouard Romain, the tournament leader. If Chess-Results' calculation of FIDE rating improvement is correct, Olivier-Kenta also wins the FM title!
