Another Upcoming Event: Unive in Hoogeveen

The sponsor is new, but the chess festival isn’t. The Unive Chess Festival in Hoogeveen starts today, but the part most chess fans will find interesting, the Crown Group, starts on the 18th. As usual, it’s a four-player double round-robin with its standard formula of a top player, a top woman, a top Dutch player and a top junior. Filling the bill this year are Vassily Ivanchuk, Judit Polgar, Sergey Tiviakov and Anish Giri, respectively.
