MANILA---Johnny Teves of the Philippines won the 2021 Rooty Hill Open Blitz Chess Championship in Rootyhill, New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.
Teves finished with 9 wins and 2 loses for a total of 9 points, the same output of Erwin Plaza of Australia.

Fifth to eight places with 7 points each are Jordan Brown of Australia, Alaina Vincent of India, Tarek Rahman of Australia and Brett Cornforth of Republic of South Africa.
