For the longest time, the FIDÉ didn’t find an organiser for this zonal tournament. In the end, probably under the impetus of the FIDÉ president Euwe, it was organised in the Euro Crest hotel under the experienced tournament director Orbaan. It was sponsored by Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf which gave it extensive coverage ([1]).
Timman led throughout, but Miles caught up with him. They took the two qualification spots for the interzonal. Meulders had won a place in this zonal by edging out Weemaes and De Bruycker in a small qualification tournament. [2] has all the games.
