I watched Tan Zhongyi the other day and it was incredibly stressful. Does anyone know where to find her qualification game or can recommend the most exciting matches she’s played?
Julius Bär Women's Speed Chess Championship 2024: Official Discussion Thread
The Magnus vs Hans match will be worldwide news, not just in chess publications.
That's extremely unlikely. Something monumental need to happen (like Magnus leaving the match after a couple of losses, and then throwing a tantrum on twitter). I'd give that less than 1:100 odds.
I'm sure Magnus will win the match but if Hans can score 40% I think that'll be a huge success for him. I'm predicting 30%-35% scoring for Hans. I'm wondering if Magnus will avoid a handshake.
Likely Magnus vs Hikaru in the final again.
In the womens bracket why does the match between Lagno and Nurman show incomplete? The score is 8.5 to 6.5 in favor of Lagno but it doesn't show she won to advance in the bracket.
