The Opening Ceremony for Your Next Move in Leuven, Belgium. The Officials welcome the Players to the first leg of the Grand Chess Tour.
2018 YNM Leuven Rapid & Blitz турнир станет первой остановкой в Гранд-шахматном туре 2018 года. 2017 год стал чемпионом мира Магнусом Карлсеном легкостью к комфортной победе, но в этом году, несомненно, будет новый чемпион, поскольку Магнус не вернется, чтобы защитить свой титул. Новые лица включают Фабиано Каруана, Хикару Накамуру, Александра Грищука и Шакрияра Мамедъярова, ни один из которых не участвовал в издании 2017 года. К ним присоединится GM Anish, который снова примет участие в Leuven в качестве подстановочного знака для мероприятия.
The 2018 YNM Leuven Rapid & Blitz tournament will be the first stop on the 2018 Grand Chess Tour. 2017 saw World Champion Magnus Carlsen ease to a comfortable victory but there will definitely be a new champion this year as Magnus is not returning to defend his title. New faces include Fabiano Caruana, Hikaru Nakamura, Alexander Grischuk and Shakriyar Mamedyarov none of whom participated in the 2017 edition. They will be joined by GM Anish who will once again participate in Leuven as a Wildcard for the event.

The Saint Louis Chess Club hosted the Show Me Classic this past Saturday on May 26, 2018. Since it was a four round tournament, the event provided a nice start to the Memorial Day weekend.
As a scholastic chess instructor, I have the pleasure of working at a variety of chess related activities throughout the Saint Louis area.
