No changes on the stage: the two top seeds Bernhard Zoremba and Dario Adam both win their fourth round in the B-Open. Also at the top is a familiar figure from last year and a 10-year-old super talent.

45 participants and some guests gathered at the Ardeyschoppen on Tuesday evening for the rapid chess tournament. The two players from the main match of the Sparkassen Chess Trophy 2024, Elisabeth Pähtz and Dinara Wagner, were present at the start and opening of the evening.

The first two rounds of the A-Open are available for download as PGN files.

Not Anton Korobov, Frederik Svane or Krishnan Sasikiran are leading the A-Open of the International Dortmund Chess Days after four rounds, but FM Nadav Zemach (2384) after his victory over Christopher Wojin Yoo (2616)!
