Daniel King: "As my main game I am featuring Giri-Carlsen from the Champions Chess Tour series, which is another positional masterpiece from Carlsen - add it to the long list. I also consider another game from the tournament (Aronian-Nepo), featuring a missed opportunity."

There are also the usual problems, one of them composed by Mrs T.B.Rowland, born as Frideswide Fanny Beechey in Galway, Ireland, on April 18, 1845.
In 1882 she was the first woman to win a prize in a chess-problem composing competition. The British Chess Magazine of 1883, on page 30, noted that a "Chess Department" had commenced, edited by Miss Beechey, in a new weekly publication, the Matlock Register, the first edition of which was dated 08/12/1882. The BCM suggested this was the first such
column to be edited by a lady.
