Two Kings In Group 3

Saint29 (Neil Williams) and Steven Smithwhite both top group 3 with 5pts each. Neil has a daily rating of 1963 so how did he get so good?

He started playing chess when he was young although only played for 4-5 years before he had a long hiatus from the game until a couple of years ago. He feels he has hit a plateau for a while recently. Neil has recently joined Maidstone Chess club. When Neil and Steven met they finished 1-1, so Steven is clearly to be watched in the next round.
