1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Olexandr Prohorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Joshua Rofrano, Mitko Iliev, Paris Klerides, Mikhail Golubev, Jim Webster, Adam Raoof and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Erwin L'Ami won the Reykjavik open with a round to spare for surely the best result of his career. The women's world championship is suffering somewhat from the lack of the champion Hou Yifan (she was in Hawaii winning a two day rapid and blitz event) but no doubt the event will be very interesting in the later stages. Top seed Humpy Koneru has so far been convincing. This week also saw a lot of team chess with many leagues coming towards or in fact concluding. Plenty to look at.

9) Hawaii Open 2015

The Hawaii Open took place 19th to 22nd March. The Open final results are not available. Hou Yifan eventually won both the rapid and blitz parts of a four player event. I believe both standings were combined but I split them so to separate the rapid and blitz games.
