It is with great pleasure to announce that the Mindsports Grandmasters Open has been a success! The third edition of titled tournaments at the London Mindsports Centre. The tournament took place from the 13th – 17th September, and was advertised as a Super Swiss Open tournament. The idea was taken from the 1000GM Las Vegas Super Swiss – credit goes to the 1000GM organisation and the project manager IM Josiah Stearman. The Las Vegas tournament can be found here.
The Mindsports GM Super Swiss achieved an average rating greater than 2400 after the first twenty registrations. An amazing feat! The final field of players included 32 total players with an average rating of 2305, including 5 GMs, 9 IMs, 1 WGM, 5 FMs, & 3 CMs.
