1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Gregory Joseph, Kenneth Regan, Laszlo Nagy, Hugh Brodie, Dennis Monokroussos, Dimitris Skyrianoglou and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The FIDE Candidates continues to entertain both the Open and women's events. It really is nuts that some people would like to change the format, it's one of the very few things that actually works in the chess world at the moment. Not only does the Candidates provide a severe sporting challenge, it tells us much about the state of the game at the very highest level. Round 10 is being played as I write this. Ian Nepomnaichtchi and Gukesh lead but Praggnanandhaa is close and Vidit, Caruana and Nakamura are not out of it yet. In the women's Tan Zhongyi leads alone but that could easily change tonight. As mentioned last week the time zone is quite bad for me but these tournaments should be in different parts of the world, not in Europe all the time so I just have to get on with it.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

22) 55th Italian Teams 2024

The 55th Italian Team Championship took place 8th to 14th April 2024. I didn't have any time to smarten up the rounds numbers. There was a 7 round preliminary followed by a two or three round secondary phase. I didn't really have time to work out what they were doing. Objective Padova won the main event and Pedone Isolano won the women's event. I didn't cover that, I don't know if there were games.
