European Championship 2024 reaches midpoint

The 2024 European Individual Championship in Petrovac, Montenegro, has reached its midpoint. After six rounds of intense chess battles, players are enjoying a well-deserved rest day on November 14.

Heading into Round 6, four players were tied for the lead with 4.5/5 and clashed on the top boards.  Frederik Svane (GER) and Ivan Cheparinov (BUL) drew their game, while Aleksandar Indjic (SRB) outplayed Maxim Chigaev (ESP) in an endgame to claim the sole lead with 5.5/6.

Six players, including top seed Vladimir Fedoseev (SLO), secured victories in Round 6, joining Svane and Cheparinov in a group trailing Indjic by just half a point , all standing at 5/6.

The competition resumes on November 15, with Round 7 beginning at 4 PM local time. The leader, Indjic, will face a formidable challenge as he takes on top seed Fedoseev with the black pieces.
