1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Olexandr Prohorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Gwenole Grall, Yochanan Afek, Mitko Iliev, Carl Fredrik Johansson, Dragan Babic, Manfred Mussnig, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Evgeny Tomashevsky won the FIDE Grand Prix in Tbilisi and put himself in first place in the Grand Prix standings with one to go. Tomashevsky was impressive throughout and a good result in the final event will see him through and put pressure on those behind him. The European Individual Championship is taking place in Jerusalem and there Nepomniachtchi, Motylev, Sargissian and Bartel lead after 6 of the 11 rounds. Plenty of games to look at.

2) Tbilisi FIDE Grand Prix 2015

The Tbilisi FIDE Grand Prix took place 15th February (Round 1) to 27th February 2015. Players: Alexander Grischuk, Anish Giri, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, Peter Svidler, Dmitry Andreikin, Dmitry Jakovenko, Teimour Radjabov, Leinier Dominguez Perez, Evgeny Tomashevsky, Rustam Kasimdzhanov and Baadur Jobava. The favourites Anish Giri and Alexander Grischuk both had disappointing results. The event was dominated by Evgeny Tomashevsky scoring 8/11 a point and a half clear of Dmitry Jakovenko. Tomashevsky goes to the top of the Grand Prix standings and will also play the final event in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia 13th to 27th May 2015. It seems likely Tomashevsky, Caruana, Nakamura and maybe Gelfand and Jakovenko will fight it out for the two Candidates places. Karjakin, Grischuk and Giri will no doubt have to win the event to have any chance at all of qualifying by this route. Mamedyarov currently stands second but he will inevitably be overtaken in the final tournament.

14) Internationaux Paris IdF 2015

The IdF chess league (Ile de France) celebrated 90 years of existence with their traditional Youth Festival that also served as qualification tournament for the French youth championships.

There were more than 500 participants playing in different age groups from u10 to u16 and also 3 more opens (A, B and C) for the rest.

Additionally there was a category 4 IM tournament. The youngest participant, Fy Antenaina RAKOTOMAHARO, edged out GM Samy Shoker on tiebreak and achieved his first IM norm.

My thanks to arbiter Gwenole Grall for the news and games from the IM group.
