Tiger on the Modern with GM Tiger Hillarp Persson

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Paulo Rocha, Jim Hollingsworth, Chris Ward, Adam Raoof, Dave Clayton, Yochanan Afek, Graham Jurgensen, Frans Peeters, Lennart Ootes, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Wesley So won the Leon tournament but not without a few adventures. 12 year old R Praggnanandhaa gave So a real scare. The youngest GM in the world is just at the start of his career but he is obviously someone special. Ian Nepomniachtchi won a lively 4th Gideon Japhet Memorial where the field was very tightly bunched. Lots of summer chess to enjoy.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

27) Astana Open 2018

The Astana Open took place 17th June to 3rd July 2018. First there was a GM norm tournament, then the main open. There were problems with a couple of rounds of the games in the GM event but the games seem unlikely to be corrected so I'll give what I have this week. Jakhongir Vakhidov won with 6/9.

45) 22nd Voronezh Chess Festival 2018

The 22nd Voronezh Chess Festival took place 12th to 21st June 2018. Dmitry Kokarev edged out Andrey Stukopin, Dmitry Bocharov and Nikita Matinian on tie-break after all scored 7/9. I rather messed up the final set of games from the Master section forgetting there were extra games from each round. There were further complications in that it seems some of the live games I gave initially were better than the final version file. Also now games from the B-Open available.
