The London Chess Classic

David Fowler and David Lettington both visited the London Chess Classic and were lucky enough to see the top 4 English players take on 4 of the best players in the world.

England's Luke McShane was the star performer, beating Magnus Carlsen, the world number 1, and not losing a single game in the entire tournament.

Former World Champion Vladimir Kramnik had a tough tournament, including a strange loss to the US number one Hikaru Nakamura.

The tournament was huge success and there were hundreds of spectators every day.
