Game of the Week #439
Merijn van Delft: "The Skilling Open Preliminaries have been absolutely exciting in the past three days, seeing 16 world class players battling it out for 8 qualification spots. Carlsen and Nakamura finished ahead of the rest. Firouzja at times played chess from another planet, but was heartbreakingly knocked out on tiebreak. Our Game of the Week is the impressive model game that Anton Guijarro produced with Black against Nepomniachtchi's 1.b3."
