1) Introduction

My thanks to Alexander Prokhorov, Roland Wimmer, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Hassan Khaled, Paulo Rocha, Miklos Orso, Olena Boytsun, Frank Berry, Gujuan Tzu, Holger Lieske, Laszlo Nagy, Zenon Franco Ocampos, George Mirijanian, Mitko Iliev, Radu-Catalin Chirila and everyone else who helped with the issue.

I don't think there is any doubt that the biggest star in chess at the moment is Magnus Carlsen, he returned to play in Medias, Romania in the 5th Kings Tournament. He started with a win and then a draw against the dangerous Ivanchuk followed by a dull draw against Radjabov where he almost pushed a bit too hard after his opponent equalised in the opening. Other events include the 19th Sigeman & Co tournament in Malmo which has a nice little niche in the calendar, the Ukrainian Chess Federation also managed to bring together their best players other than Ivanchuk in the strongest national championships for some time. Lots of other interesting events are on too in a busy week.

FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov pitched up in Libya this week meeting with Colonel Gaddafi. There surely can be no other reason than shameless self publicity which he specialises in. Certainly not the year of African Chess he claimed. Just as with Sepp Blatter in FIFA, you end up asking the question why is this man in charge? The answer is that he is better at getting elected than anyone else in the organisation (both have one nation one vote), but that is the only reason. But he does have bottle, I'll give him that, it was a pretty dangerous trip.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

2) 5th Kings Tournament 2011

The 5th King's Tournament in Medias has got off to a quiet start. There were nice wins for Magnus Carlsen and Vassily Ivanchuk in the first round but after that Nakamura beat Nisipeanu only with a lot of help in the second and Nisipeanu himself beat Ivanchuk in the 3rd.

3) 19th Sigeman & Co

The 19th Sigeman & Co tournament took palce 9th-13th June 2011. The event wasn't as explosive as in recent years and three players, Anish Giri, Wesley So and Hans Tikkanen finished on 3/5. I think it likely Wesley So won due to having the most wins but I don't have confirmation of that beyond that was the order given in a twitter from the official site.
