Chimes at Midnight

And finally, the “尚街杯” (“MEWE Cup”) 2017 World Champion Summit Chess Match award ceremony took place today in 深圳 (Shēnzhèn), China just before another Midnight chime. The Queen, 侯逸凡 (Hóu Yìfán) from China, was given spring flowers and gold, while the King, Vassily Mykhaylovych “Chucky” Ivanchuk from Ukraine, cashed in dollars for gold. The feast was attended by most city authorities and officiated by the almighty Chinese Chess Association (CCA)’s Secretary-General 叶江川 (Yè Jiāngchuān). All photos: sports.sohu.com.
