Jennifer won the Gold at World Youth

Jennifer Yu stole the show at the 2014 World Junior Championship, scoring 10 out of 11 in the Girls U12. I was most impressed with her last round game, where, after already clinching Gold, she simply crushed her opponent.

See GM Finegold article.

Congrats to Jennifer! 

Coach Andy had one encounter with this great young lady two years ago when she was under 1900. After that, she has zoomed up almost 300 points. Pretty amazing!

Who was the future GM?

He was born in Miami, Florida, in 1992, went to school in Brooklyn, played in Queens in the Susan Polgar Club, trained with Pal Benko, defeated a GM at the age of ten, moved to Spain, then to Hungary, and made his GM norms at the age of 14 years. Today, at 15, he is the strongest player in Italy and the world's youngest grandmaster.

An interesting article from Chessbase.

Can you play like Fabiano Caruana?

The Sinquefield Cup is a fantastic event! It is the strongest tournament in chess history, the players demostrate fighting, very "tasty" chess, and the coverage on the official website is amazing. Of course, the whole chess community must thank Rex Sinquefield for this amazing gift to all of us!

Right now the tournament is a one-person show. As I am writing this article, Fabiano Caruana has an unbelievable 7 out of 7! (Update: He finished with the excellent score of 8.5/10.)

This phenomenal result can be only compared to Bobby Fischer's famous massacare of two 1971 candidates matches, with the same lopsided score 6-0 (vs. Taimanov and Larsen).
