Clutch Chess Champions Showdown 2020 (Games and Results)

Clutch Chess Champions Showdown 2020

The Clutch Chess Champions Showdown took place online Tuesday, May 26 - Friday, May 29 2020 and organised by the Saint Louis Chess Club. The format created by Maurice Ashley awards the normal points in a 12 game match (time control 10 minutes plus 10 seconds a move) but doubles these for games 5 and 6 at the end of day 1 and trebles them for the final games 11 and 12. This should mean that matches have tense finishes. If successful a further even in June with more players is planned. Players: Fabiano Caruana, Wesley So, Leinier Dominguez and Hikaru Nakamura. Wesley So won the final against Fabiano Caruana by virtue of the greater number of Clutch points after the match was tied 9-9.
