Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
It’s too bad that Goichberg and Schultz killed the best sponsorship deal that this event has ever had.
Go Jamie! She’s representing Utah and the only girl playing in the Denker I believe.
Does anyone know the standings for both Denker and Polgar tournaments? Monroi.com doesn’t have any information.
It’s irritating not knowing what the standings are for the scholastic tournaments: Denker & Polgar. The US Open standings are updated timely on the USCF and Monroi.com sites, but for Denker and Polgar it’s bits and pieces here and there depending on who decides to write about them and usually just highlights. Why not post current standings as well??
