1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Gregory Joseph, Thomas Henrich, Marek Prus and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen made extremely light work of the Champions Chess Tour Final. I don't know at what point Carlsen gets bored of beating everyone at speed chess but that time surely must come. In three days he'll be playing the World Rapid and Blitz, I used to be surprised when he managed to win both titles at the same event, but I think it would count as a shock if he doesn't do the double this time. The Groningen Chess Festival always seems like the curtain raiser to the Christmas events, most start just after Christmas but this one has always run either side, it's just a nice tournament. I wish everyone a Happy Christmas.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

2) Champions Chess Tour Final 2024

The Champions Chess Tour Finals took place Dec 17, 2024 – Dec 21, 2024 in Oslo, Norway over the board rather than via a server. 8 players compete: Magnus Carlsen, Alireza Firouzja, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Ian Nepomniachtchi, Wesley So, Denis Lazavik, Vincent Keymer and Levon Aronian. The event starts with a Round Robin mini-match stage, these are two games matches with an Armageddon (times decided by bidding), if tied. There was then a final chance in the Survival Stage for players placed 3rd-6th in the Round Robin. Ian Nepomniachtchi beat Denis Lazavik in the Winners final to take one place. MVL beat Vincent Keymer and then Lazavik who had a second chance, in the Losers final. This meant the semifinal lineup was decided as Magnus Carlsen vs MVL (Carlsen got to choose his semifinal opponent after winning the RR) and Alireza Firouzja vs Ian Nepomniachtchi. Magnus Carlsen won the event defeating MVL 3.5-1.5 in the Semifinal and Nepomniachtchi 4-1 (winning the first two games) in the final. Nepomniachtchi had defeated Firouzja 3.5-0.5 in the other semifinal. It's going to be very interesting to see how Carlsen does in the World Rapid and Blitz in just under a week in New York, he seems practically unplayable at fast time controls right now.

32) 14th XTX Markets London Chess Classic 2024

The 14th London Chess Classic sponsored by XTX Markets took place in the Emirates Stadium Fri 29th Nov to Sat 7th Dec 2024. The field of the Elite round robin was Gawain Jones, Michael Adams, Santosh Vidit, Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, Nikita Vitiugov, Andrew Hong, Ju Wenjun and Shreyas Royal play. Raunak Sadhwani and Ilya Smirin are the top seeds in the Masters, a 9 round open.

Gawain Jones scored a fine victory with an undefeated 5/7, his round one win against Michael Adams seems especially important in retrospect, Adams tied with Vidit, Vitiugov and Mamedyarov on 4 points in second place.

I now include the very, very strong blitz event that took place on the final day. Alireza Firouzja won the Superblitz final by a point from MVL. There were group stages followed by a final.
