1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, John Hartmann, Simon McNamara, Bohuslav Siekierka and everyone else who helped both with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen has guaranteed a place in the final stages of the Legends of Chess tournament along with Ian Nepomniachtchi but the two other places are still up for grabs among four other players. In Biel Pentala Harikrishna leads the Classical section of the tournament although Radoslaw Wojtaszek leads in the combined standings of rapid, blitz and classical tournaments.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

2) Legends of Chess 2020

The Legends of Chess is the final online qualifier for the Magnus Carlsen tour final in August and takes place July 21st to August 5th 2020. The event has returned to the Match Round Robin format they used in the first Magnus Carlsen Invitational. That is there are 10 players and they play a one day match against each of their rivals for a point in the standing. The Legends name has been translated into inviting former world chess champions Viswanthan Anand, Vladimir Kramnik, former championship challengers Peter Leko and Boris Gelfand along with 8 time Russian Champion Peter Svidler and Vasyl Ivanchuk. Magnus Carlsen, Anish Giri, Ian Nepomniachtchi and Ding Liren qualified as the top four finishers in the Chessable Masters. Play starts at 3pm BST. 21st-29th July is the Match Round Robin stage from which four players qualify for the semi-finals which take place after the only rest day (July 30th) July 31st-August 2nd. The final then takes place August 3rd-5th. The time control is a rapid 15 minutes plus 10 seconds a move. The venue is the chess24 Playzone.

3) 53rd Biel Chess Festival 2020

The 53rd Biel Chess Festival takes place Sat 18th Jul 2020 to Wed 29th Jul 2020. This is the first major chess festival to take place since the coronavirus crisis. The main event is the Grandmaster Triathlon where the 8 players play at three time controls to decide the final result - Classical: 7 games, - Rapid: 7 games (reversed colors) - Blitz: 14 games (2-way). The players are: Pentala Harikrishna, Radoslaw Wojtaszek, David Anton Guijarro, Michael Adams, Saleh Salem, Romain Edouard, Noel Studer and Vincent Keymer. Alongside is not the normal GM open but just an amateur open with special measures to reduce contact between the players. It will be an interesting event to follow. The tournament kicks off with a Chess960 tournament on Saturday 18th July.

5) FIDE Online Olympiad 2020

The FIDE Online Olympiad takes place 25th July to 23rd August 2020. There will be various qualifiers until the leading teams start to complete at a much later stage. The format seemed overly complicated to me but the documentation starting with the Base Leagues in this issue seems like it will be excellent.
