1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Lennart Ootes, Ted Strong, Peter Doggers, Alex Relyea, Jude Acers, Matthew Phelps, Johan Sigerman and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The Du Te Cup in Shanghai is the top event of the week with Anish Giri, Michael Adams, Peter Svidler, Pentala Harikrishna, Yu Yangyi and Ding Liren competing. The PRO Chess League finished last weekend with the St Louis Arch Bishops beating the Norway Gnomes in spite of Magnus Carlsen scoring 4/4 including beating Wesley So. This is the first year of this rapid event. This has been a very promising start and no doubt we'll see it run again next year. Lots of other interesting tournaments and league matches to look at too.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
