Jan Mrozowski of Poland won the World Sudoku Championship for the second consecutive year. Eventhough he lost his advantage on Consecutive and Killer puzzles, Jan went on to win this championship.
The second placing was secured by Jakub Ondrousek of the Czech Republic. Hideaki Jo of Japan and Florian Kirch of Germany respectively took the third and fourth placing.
This year’s event, which was designed by Wei-Hwa Huang and Thomas Snyder, was extremely interesting as the individual championship had a puzzle decathlon theme with different variants of Sudoku.
