1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Alex McFarlane, Lennart Ootes, Patricia Llaneza Vega, Alex Holowczak, Nigel Hepworth, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen won the Chess.com Speed Chess in London, it's pretty clear he owns the format now. Elsewhere it was a big weekend of team chess in Germany, England, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Czech Republic and on and on. Lots of fine chess to look at no doubt.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

14) Usov-Shogjiev Match 2026

The Usov-Shogjiev Match took place 24th to 25th January 2026. Alexander Usov won all stages of the match against the slightly higher rated Roman Shogjiev, the classical he won 1.5-0.5, that was on the 24th, rapid 2.5-1.5 and blitz 3-1. I hope the games are OK, I had to correct one rapid game, the first two blitz games were mostly missing and I had to add results to a lot of the games, hence the really quite long time I took to publish the results and games, I could only establish what happened by looking at the video commenrtary.

15) 4NCL Bradford Congress 2026

The 4NCL Bradford Congress was probably the strongest tournament in my home city since the 19th century. Oleg Korneev and Peter Wells scored 4.5/5 in the top group in an event than saw a strong turnout. My thanks to everyone who helped me get the games from all the sections.

The Catalan League takes place 17th January to 14th March 2026. I wrote several paragraphs about the time it took to compile the information necessary to even be able to work on this, but long story short, the Catalan League is the hardest to work on and is getting harder.

The Finnish League had some extra rounds this weekend, also I noticed that there are now 15 rounds, I'm pretty sure there were 13 at the start of the season. To be clear there are really 11 rounds but with some matches in some rounds taking place at different times. Games should soon be available.

33) 88th Tata Steel Challengers game correction 2026

Just a game correction to the game Panesar-Assaubayeva from the final round (13.7) of the challengers. This is a strange one, because of the way that the DGT boards and software works it's very rare for there to be an error in the middle of a game these days, but 34. Bc4 Rxc4 35. Qxc4 was played instead of 34. Bxe8 Rxe8 35. Qc4, quite a difference! Unfortunately decades of experience leads me to believe it will be hard to irradicate the bad version entirely. My thanks to Lennart Ootes and by extension Malcolm Pein for pointing this out. I've corrected this single game where I can but I give it again here too.
