1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Tadej Sakelsek, Aleksandar Savanovic, Sandro Leonori, David Clayton, Jan Mazuch and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The World Chess Championship goes to a final tie-break after the classical part was drawn 6-6. 2 years ago Magnus Carlsen took a short draw with white against Sergey Karjakin to force a tie-break he dominated. This time in the final game 12 with black Carlsen was looking so strong on the board and the clock that he should have been pressing for a win but instead offered a draw on move 31 that Caruana was probably glad to accept. Carlsen is 91 ratings points stronger than Caruana in rapid chess, it remains to be seen if this translates to an easy win for him on Wednesday. Fabiano Caruana has his chances and may feel he escaped today. Perhaps his rapid rating doesn't reflect his true strength. There's still all to fight for on Wednesday. Ju Wenjun retained her World Title but only after a really tough battle with Kateryna Lagno needed a draw with white in game four of the final to become champion, she lost and then lost the tie-break too.

Hope you enjoy this issue.
