En casa tendremos el Memorial Capablanca y la gran final del Campeonato Nacional Publicado: Sábado 07 abril 2012 | 08:51:01 pm. Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde Un fuerte compromiso tiene ante sí el Gran Maestro (GM) cubano Leinier Domínguez (2730), quien participa desde hoy en la fuerte Liga Rusa de Clubes de Ajedrez. Este torneo, pactado a siete rondas por el sistema suizo, le brinda la oportunidad de topar con varios de los mejores trebejistas del mundo, algo que siempre viene bien. Además, se trata de una competencia por equipos con ritmo parecido al que tendrá la Olimpiada Mundial de agosto próximo en Turquía. En la Liga Rusa se inscribieron 20 selecciones, integradas por ocho jugadores, aunque solo jugarán seis en cada ronda. Leinier aparece en el San Petersburgo, precisamente uno de los más fuertes. Sus compañeros de batería serán el armenio Sergei Movsesian (2702), el ucraniano Zahar Efimenko (2695) y cinco rusos: Peter Svidler (2744), Nikita Vitiugov (2709), Vadim Zvjaginsev (2683), Ildar Khairullin (2626) y Maxim Matlakov (2632).

    Magnus Carlsen From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article is about the Norwegian chess player. For people with a similar name, see Magnus Carlsson (disambiguation). Magnus Carlsen Magnus Carlsen, 2008 Full name Sven Magnus Øen Carlsen Country Norway 30 November 1990 (age 19) Born Tønsberg, Norway Title Grandmaster 2826 FIDE rating (No. 1 in the September 2010 FIDE World Rankings) Peak rating 2826 (July 2010) Sven Magnus Øen Carlsen (born 30 November 1990) is a Norwegian chess Grandmaster and chess prodigy currently ranked number one in the world on the official FIDE rating list. He has achieved the second highest ever rating exceeded only by Garry Kasparov.[1][2] On 26 April 2004 Carlsen became a Grandmaster at the age of 13 years, 148 days, making him the third-youngest Grandmaster in history. On 1 January 2010 the new FIDE rating list was published, and at the age of 19 years, 32 days he became the youngest chess player in history to be ranked world number one, breaking the record previously held by Vladimir Kramnik.[3] Carlsen is also the 2009 World blitz chess champion. His performance at the September–October 2009 Nanjing Pearl Spring tournament has been described as one of the greatest in history[4] and lifted him to an Elo rating of 2801, making him the fifth player to achieve a rating over 2800 – and aged 18 years 10 months at the time, by far the youngest to do so. Based on his rating, Carlsen has qualified for the Candidates Tournament which will determine the challenger to face World Champion Viswanathan Anand in the World Chess Championship 2012.
