Chennai-based Subramaniyam completed his final GM Norm and crossed the requisite 2500 rating at Vergani Cup Open in Italy. He finished seventh overall in the event held at Cattolica by scoring 6.5 points from nine rounds. To achieve the GM title, a player has to secure three GM norms and cross the live rating of 2,500 Elo points.
