The final results for the World cup of chess composition 2011 have come out. The performance of Diyan Kostadinov in Selfmates has been very successful and he has taken the prestigious 2^nd place and also the 4^th place in the Fairy section. We should point out the fact that Petko Petkov was invited to be the director of the tournament for a second year in succession and Krassimir Gandev was the arbiter of the Fairy problems.

   Unfortunately most of the rest Bulgarian composers did not take part in the tournament and the participation of Nikolay Beluhov was expected in particular. He took the prestigious 2^nd place in the Retro problems section during the last World cup tournament.   The final award for the World cup can be seen in the site of Andrey Selivanov: http://selivanov.ru , and the direct links to the awards for the Selfmates and the Fairy problems are as follows:
