Azerbaijan, Bulgaria and Serbia are the only teams who won in all four rounds in the open section of the 41st Chess Olympiad in Tromsø, Norway.
Shakhriyar Mamedyarov decided the Azerbaijan-France match on top boards by beating Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. In the women's section, five teams still have a perfect score: China, Hungary, Indonesia, Iran and Russia.
After two nice days, the weather has
become worse in Tromsø, with heavy rain on Monday and a cloudy sky on
Tuesday that was threatening the same. With the artic sun the nights are
not dark, and with some fog, last night the city was both beautiful and
surreal!
