By WGM Irina Bulmaga, Romania.
Best FIDE rating: 2410
A great period will start for me soon, one which I can't wait to begin!
I haven't played chess so much lately, my last tournament was somewhere in the middle of May... I was caught with lots of exams at University (don't mean to gloat- but I passed all of them and now-I'm officially in my last year of Uni ).
A difficult task is now to be solved- how to pack a suitcase for 2 months? :))) I will go to the EIWCC in Plovdiv on the 4th of July, then a little vacation in Greece, after that- Olympiad and Turkish League, and I will be back home in September The difficult part about it is that the Olympiad will be held in Norway, Tromsø, where it's more an early spring than a real summer in August.

The 5th edition of Danzou super tournament is underway in China (June 25 - July 5, round robin). Previously only Chinese players used to participate in it, but this time ex-FIDE World Chess Champion Ruslan Ponomariov and German #1 player Arkadij Naiditsch have been invited as well. Notable absentees are Wang Hao (2729), Wang Yue (2713) and Li Chao (2711). Could it be a qualification event for the upcoming Chess Olympiad in Norway? Who knows.
The time control is 90m/40 moves, another 30m added after move 40, 30s/move increment starting from move one. The official prize fund is 320,000 yuan (roughly $50,000).
Round 1 results:
Ding Liren (2714) - Zhao Jun (2603), 1-0
Arkadij Naiditsch (2705) - Xiu Deshun (2550), 1/2-1/2
Bu Xiangzhi (2693) - Ma Qun (2609), 1-0
Wey Yi (2634) - Yu Yangyi (2675), 1/2-1/2
Ruslan Ponomariov (2723) - Zhou Weiqi (2601), 1/2-1/2
