The Limhamn Chess Club is proud to invite the players, the chess community, the media and the sponsors to the 28th annual Tepe Sigeman Chess Tournament. The tournament will take place May 4-10 this year, at the Elite Plaza Hotel in central Malmo. Eight players will play seven rounds, and as usual, the field is world class!<\/p>\n

The home team is represented by Sweden\u2019s number one, GM Nils Grandelius (winner in 2013, 2017 and 2018).<\/p>\n

Among the challengers is an old acquaintance, Dutch GM Jorden van Foreest (winner of the Tepe Sigeman Chess Tournament in 2021), as well as former World Championship challenger GM Boris Gelfand, Israel, and 8-times Russian champion and multiple World Championship contender, GM Peter Svidler.<\/p>\n

We also welcome four of the most promising young chess players of today (all born in this century): the top scorer on board one in the team chess Olympics last year, GM Dommaruju Gukesh, India, last year\u2019s runner-up in the Tepe Sigeman Chess Tournament, GM Arjun Erigaisi, India, the runner-up in the 2022 World Rapid Chess Championship, GM Vincent Keymer, Germany, and the world\u2019s youngest grandmaster, 14-year-old Abhimanyu Mishra, USA.<\/p>\n

This makes the 2023 field one of the strongest ever, and we would like to congratulate chess fans around the globe on the opportunity to see world-class chess live. You will be able to follow all games live, guided by our commentators, Swedish GM Stellan Brynell and Dutch GM Erwin l\u2019Ami. For those of you who are not able to visit Malmo and the Elite Plaza Hotel during the tournament, it will of course be possible to follow all games and the commentators live on the Internet (www.tepesigemanchess.com).<\/p>\n

We would also like to thank all our sponsors, TePe, Sigeman & Co, the City of Malm\u00f6, PWC, Grenspecialisten, Elite Plaza Hotel in Malm\u00f6, Schackakademien, Max Matthiessen and AWA Sweden, and all others who once again have contributed to making this traditional chess event come true.<\/block quote><\/p>\n
