Surprise winners in Hastings

by André Schulz
1/8/2016 – The Hastings Chess Congress has a very long tradition and the legendary Hastings tournament 1895 was one of the strongest tournaments of its time. Emanuel Lasker, Wilhelm Steinitz and Siegbert Tarrasch took part but in the end the American Harry Nelson Pillsbury won the tournament. A real surprise at that time. This year's Congress also had two surprise winners.

Winning starts with what you know
The new version 18 offers completely new possibilities for chess training and analysis: playing style analysis, search for strategic themes, access to 6 billion Lichess games, player preparation by matching Lichess games, download Chess.com games with built-in API, built-in cloud engine and much more.

This year a number of strong players and grandmasters travelled to England to pay tribute to the long chess tradition of Hastings. Elo-favorites were GM Ferenc Berkes from Hungary and GM Igor Khenkin from Germany. But in the end neither of them won the tournament. After nine rounds both had half a point less than GM Jahongiv Vakhidov from Uzbekistan and  GM Aleksander Mista from Poland. The two surprise winners shared first place with 7.0/9 each.

The tournament venue leaves no room for doubt: chess is sport.
