Master Dupont - yet again!

GIPF exists in Belgium since June, 1996. The very same evening of it's release the first Antwerp Open GIPF tournament was announced, giving everybody exactly 6 months to prepare him/herself for the first GIPF challenge. During the Project GIPF weekend the 5th edition of the Open GIPF took place. So, it could be said that all the participants had had exactly 5 years to prepare themselves for this jubilee event. Less players than for the previous Antwerp Open GIPF tournaments, but, nonetheless, a bunch of strong players was present and eager to show off with *outstanding* play - and many of them were candidate for the title. Werner Dupont remained the only unbeaten player after 5 rounds and was already sure to have won yet another major trophee before having started his last round game. Patrick Van de perre won against Werner and Kurt Van den Branden floored Aksel De Meester. Three players shared the first place with 5 wins, but Werner had to face stronger opponents and, thus, won the 5th Open GIPF. His second victory that weekend! He had already won the DVONN tournament on Saturday - but was it enough to become the first Project GIPF Champion?
