1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Paulo Rocha, Julio Alberto Gonzalez, Henri Koskinen, Arthur Brameld, Paul Lillebo, Lennart Ootes, Ariel Fabian and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The European Team Championships is the top event of the week in a week of teams events. Fabiano Caruana beat Hikaru Nakamura in an exhibition match over several formats in St Louis. It's been a busy weekend for me so this has been all about putting the games together in a limited time for me.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

19) Hampshire Open 2015

I don't have final standings but here is part of John Wheeler's report (Arthur Brameld sent the games) "Tony Corkett has retained the Hampshire Championship and the Silver Rook, but only by the narrowest of margins. Tony was one of three players who finished with 4 points, but the real winner was Rowan Brown with the splendid score of 5.5 points. Rowan is from Sussex, and is not eligible to be the Hampshire Champion. Second place was a tie between Tony Corkett and Gavin Lock. The Under-175 grading prize was won by Horia Bogdan with 4 points. Horia could have claimed a share of 2nd prize, but as the sole winner of the grading prize, he received a bigger cheque." )
