So the Chinese chess championships have been watched with interest this year. In the 2011 championship, a dark horse has once again emerged to take first place: Ding Liren. The 18-year-old won the title in 2009 (in part because of a defaulted game), despite being one of the lower-rated chess players in the field. His score this year was a startling 9-2 against such well-known chess grandmasters as Yue Wang and Xiangzhi Bu. Ding has only occasionally played in the West. World Women’s chess champion Hou Yifan scored an impressive ...

It's a tricky decision... RB: My first reaction is: no, White should definitely not exchange. After 1 Nf4 Bxf4 2 Kxf4 Kd5 it seems to me as though Black is definitely better. But what else does White have? I don't want to drop the king back and allow the black king to invade. I could try 1 a4, but after 1…b6 I'm back to my original dilemma. It makes me nervous, but let's see what happens after 1 Nf4. Black takes, obviously, 1…Bxf4 2 Kxf4 Kd5. Now what? As long as ...

And that opened the door for Gata Kamsky to capture his second straight title. Kamsky and Shulman met in the tournament final, as they did last year, when four competitors competed in round robin play. Kamsky and Shulman emerged as the top scorers of that round and met in an Armageddon game, in which White has more time but Black only has to draw to be declared the winner. No Armageddon was needed at this year’s final, which ended Wednesday in St. Louis, because Kamsky won the first game and the second was drawn. The first game would ...

Now Russia and India lead in junior chess while, since David Howell became a grandmaster in 2007, the only new English GMs and IMs have been adults. Yang-Fan Zhou, 16, broke the drought last week when he scored his final IM norm at Coulsdon. It followed Zhou's eye-catching 9/9 at Brighton in February and the International Chess Federation (Fide) should formally award him his IM title in a few weeks' time. The sixth-former from Whitgift School in Croydon has made an 80-point surge up the world chess ratings, reflecting ... |
