David Bronstein and Wolfgang Uhlmann shared first with 11½/15

David Bronstein and Wolfgang Uhlmann shared first in the 1966 Asztalos Memorial with 11½/15. Their equal points are the historical result even though Bronstein scored one more win, so the archive's headline must preserve the shared victory rather than apply a win-count tie-break.

Two paths to the same score

Bronstein reached 11½ with nine wins, five draws, and one loss; Uhlmann reached the same total with eight wins, seven draws, and no losses. The different records ended at an equal score and a shared first place.

The challengers

János Flesch finished third on 9½. Péter Dely and Victor Ciocaltea shared the next score on 9.

A complete table that needs one historical instruction

All 120 games and fifteen rounds are here, and the table adds up. Bronstein won more games than his co-winner, so the page names both as joint winners rather than ranking him first on wins.
