It was a senior moment — in a good way — for the U.S. as American squads took home a gold, silver and bronze medal at last week’s 2024 FIDE World Senior Team Championships, held inThe American women’s Team USA squad captured a silver in the 50+ team competition and a bronze in the tournament for teams aged 65 and older. Most impressive was the gold medal captured by the U.S.
White’s 4. 0-0 a6 5. Bd3!? is an awkward but trendy way to handle the bishop these days, but as Koganov will eventually end up fianchettoing the bishop on g2, it amounts here to a serious loss of time. Black, by contrast, plays with economical efficiency, closing the center, developing his pieces, and then getting in a well-time central break before White is ready to respond: 14. g3 d5! 15. Ncd2 Rad8 16.
It’s over anyway on 29. c3 Nxc1 30. Rxc1 Ra2 31. cxd4 Qb6 32. Qc3 Rxb2, and White, down a full rook, calls it quits.We wrote last week about American super-GM Fabiano Caruana’s transformation into a world-class rapid player, and he showed that in spades by capturing the third event in this year’s Grand Chess Tour, the SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz Tournament in Croatia.
Aronian can’t solve the complications over the board and White breaks on top after 13…b6? 14. Bb5 Ba6? 15. Ne2!, developing a piece while defending the rook on a1.
