Merijn van Delft: "It has been a very quiet week at top level chess, with the Tegernsee Masters being one of the very few exceptions. I'd like to mention Fier's cool win against Bluebaum. But this did give us the time to watch "The Queen's Gambit" on Netflix, and inspired by its main character Beth Harmon, we decided to revisit Fischer's classical win against Spassky in the Queen's Gambit at the 1972 World Championship match in Reykjavik."
