25000 Euro prize money at the Open of the 50th International Dortmund Chess Days

World Champion Kramnik starts at the NC World Masters in the Dortmund Westfalenhallen

The 49th International Dortmund Chess Days are over, the winners have been determined - 7 competitions, two German winners, three Ukrainians (!), a Dutchman and an Iranian won the tournaments.

Big favourite Viswanathan Anand went into the last round of the NC World Masters with a half-point lead. The 15th World Chess Champion did not manage more than a draw against Michael Adams.

What a strong performance: 3 wins, 3 draws mean the tournament victory for Pavel Eljanov in the grandmaster tournament of the Sparkassen Chess Trophy 2022.
