1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Jim Hollingsworth, Samuel Bielka, Holger Lieske, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The Moscow Grand Prix has reached round 4. Ding Liren and Shakhriyar Mamedyarov lead on 3/4. Not everyone likes so many draws but this is tough top level chess with qualification at stake. Elsewhere the Russian Team Championship finished with Sibir-Sirius winning. The return of the 23rd Tepe Sigeman & Co Chess Tournament after a three year break was very welome, returns of this type hardly ever happen.

Hope you enjoy this issue.
