Huge congrats to Sohum Lohia on getting his final norm and achieving the IM title!

It’s been a great journey working with him over the last two years from 2100 to the IM title with a lot of ups and downs.

Big credit to his mom @aartilohia23 for her tireless efforts and support. pic.twitter.com/HNRb05AKrd

I believe both FM Alex Golding and FM Sohum Lohia are on for IM norms at the Southend Easter Chess Festival. Golding is 1/2 a point behind the lead. Below is Lohia's win today over IM Marcus Harvey #chess #englishchess pic.twitter.com/S44I4XNGYq
