2009 CJA Awards

The Chess Journalists of America (CJA) have announced their 2009 awards (see their page 2009 Awards Announcement plus my previous post Entries for 2009 CJA Awards, with links to the entries). Alexandra Kosteniuk won the Chess Journalist of the Year award for her many contributions to chess journalism. The chess blogosphere was represented by GM Kosteniuk's several blogs and by UTB/TSC Chess (utbchess.blogspot.com; the UTB/TSC acronym stands for University of Texas at Brownsville / Texas Southmost College), which won a 'Local Interest' award in the category for 'Best Chess Web Site'. Congratulations to all of this year's CJA winners!
