Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Where’s Aronian?
No player invited from (olympic champions) Armenia?
Nisipeanu is playing in Corus after 10 years!!!The romanian player at all time…
Where’s Nigel Short in the B-Group?
Nigel Short is in the A group.
Ray Robson isn’t good enough for this group this year? My bet is next year he will be.
Hope to see a young American, such as Robson or Hess, in the C group!
