Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This four-round Swiss is perfect for players seeking a quick but serious start to 2027, with sections ranging from Premier down to Scholastics so everyone from beginners to masters can find their level. The G/45 time control offers a brisk pace while still allowing real strategic play, and FIDE titled players get in free—a nice perk for those who've earned their credentials. At $25–$70 depending on section, the entry fee is remarkably affordable for a well-organized event.
