First video from Morelia!
After the great success of our videos in Wijk aan Zee, of course we tried everything we could to provide some moving images of the next super tournament as well. And we managed! Thanks to some contacts, we succeeded smuggling some video footage out of Morelia! We're talking about the start of the first round. Enjoy! (More will follow tonight, like post-mortems!)
Peter Doggers joined a chess club a month before turning 15 and still plays for it. He used to be an active tournament player and holds two IM norms.
Peter has a Master of Arts degree in Dutch Language & Literature. He briefly worked at New in Chess, then as a Dutch teacher and then in a project for improving safety and security in Amsterdam schools.
Between 2007 and 2013 Peter was running ChessVibes, a major source for chess news and videos acquired by Chess.com in October 2013.
As our Director News & Events, Peter writes many of our news reports. In the summer of 2022, The Guardian’s Leonard Barden described him as “widely regarded as the world’s best chess journalist.”
In October, Peter's first book The Chess Revolution will be published!
