Champions Showdown 9LX 2020
Mark Crowther - Sunday 13th September 2020
The Champions Showdown 9LX took place in online on Lichess 11th to 13th September 2019. This year the format was a 10 player Round Robin. Magnus Carlsen was the top seed and he played against Garry Kasparov for the first time since 2004. Fabiano Caruana, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Levon Aronian, Wesley So, Leinier Dominguez Perez, Hikaru Nakamura, Alireza Firouzja and Peter Svidler. They used a version of the Chess 960 variant in this rapid tournament. I don't have software that can display these games on my website but produced a PGN file for download. Hikaru Nakamura and Magnus Carlsen tied for first place with 6/9. Most of the players will play Saint Louis' rapid and blitz event starting on Tuesday, again online.
