1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Jan Mazuch, Hugh Brodie, Robert Ris, Vincent Pandelaar, Ilgar Bajarani and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The London Chess Classic is under way with the World Champion Magnus Carlsen playing Maxime Vachier-Lagrave in a mini-match of classical, rapid and blitz games, one of these two along with Ding Liren or Levon Aronian playing in the other Semi-Final will win the Grand Chess Tour this year. This event follows hard on the heals of the Tata Steel India tournament from the same tour where Carlsen took first place winning the rapid and finishing first equal with Nakamura in the blitz. In an extremely busy week there are many other very nice events including a tournament win for Vassily Ivanchuk in Zagreb, the Dutch Rapid and Blitz Championship, two! tournament wins for Sergei Tiviakov, the Italian Champioships, many team events. Really much to look at.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
