Competition edit

In the first stage 40 participants played in four groups named after the well-known world champions Andris Andreiko, Baba Sy, Iser Kuperman, and Marcel Deslauriers round-robin tournament. The first three from each group participated in the final.

The final was held in the form of a round-robin tournament. Matches between people who had already played each other in the group stage did not take place, but the results of those group matches were taken into account. The final place was determined by total points. In the event of a tie, the tie-breaking criteria were greatest number of victories, the greatest difference between plus and minus draws, the largest number of plus draws*, and the result of the game(s) between the players involved. Other sportsmen played in final B.

In the B final, the winner was Ndiaga Samb (Senegal).

French champion Arnaud Cordier refused to participate. He was replaced by Artem Ivanov (Ukraine).
