Birmingham-based Tatiana Dardykina (born 1981, Russia), London-based Alexei Petrov (born 1982, Russia) and Alexander Karpeyev (born 1983, Russia) who also lives in London, impressed the judges during the preliminary and semi-final rounds at the weekend. All three will play in the competition finals at Town Hall on Saturday 27 June. Chairman of the judges, Andrew Ball, said “We had a fantastic weekend with a really high standard of playing.
