Tiger on the Modern with GM Tiger Hillarp Persson

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Gunnar Bjornsson, Ian Lamb, Dimitris Skyrianoglou and everyone else who helped with this issue.

There was a very brief break from elite chess last week but the US Championships with Caruana, So and Nakamura and Shamkir with the World Champion start in a couple of days. The Dubai and Sharjah opens, the European Women's Championship and the exciting finish of the PRO League in San Francisco are the main events covered. In addition games from Iceland and Germany wrap up coverage of various League programs.

Hope you enjoy this issue.
