by Alejandro Ramirez
12/31/2014 – The traditional Groningen Chess Festival in the Netherlands has concluded its 52nd edition. The festival included lectures, trivia, several open sections and matches. The International Open was demolished by Donchenko with a brutal 8.0/9 and a 2803 performance rating. Oh, and he made a grandmaster norm! Despite his 2500+ rating the young winner of the event is not yet a GM!
