the kids are alright
Corus is dead – long live Linares, or, better:
Corus was tense and bright, but now let’s look forward to Linares.
Without the Corus A winner, but joining the Boss himself 😉
okay
Corus was ok, but the 65% draws was too much.
Using electronic equipment Morozevich scores aagain.
What’s the moral of the story?
Morozevisch should be banned for life
This tournament is cool, its truly a good competition for the booming ang veteran chess players. Cheers to the winners and organizers… Congratulations Wesly So, winner or Corus C…
“Corus was ok, but the 65% draws was too much.”
For Group C,its different. Look at the games of Hoyos, its do or die.
Congratulation to Wesley So!!!
