1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Lennart Ootes and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Vincent Keymer won the Grand Chess Tour Super Chess Classic Romania, he was half a point clear of Fabiano Caruana. The main story of the event was Alireza Firouzja's withdrawal from the event after hurting his ankle. Only a few days later Firouzja was sufficiently recovered to play in the Norway Chess tournament which started today. Firouzja was the beneficiary of an oversight by Magnus Carlsen and was the only winner of the first day. Plenty to look at.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
