1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Mitko Iliev, Ruben Bernardi and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Igor Kovalenko won the Keres Memorial a very strong rapid event which this year marks the centenary of the birth of Paul Keres. I hope there will be more events remembering a titan of the game. This week also saw the conclusion of most of the holiday period opens. Gawain Jones winning in New Zealand, Igor Kovalenko in Stockholm and Aleksander Mista and Jahongir Vakhidov in Hastings. The first major tournament of the year is the Tata Steel tournament which starts in Wijk aan Zee on Saturday with World Champion Magnus Carlsen as top seed.

Hope you enjoy this issue.
