Marking the midway point of the tour will be the SuperUnited Croatia Rapid & Blitz, which starts July 8. Following the same format as the Superbet Warsaw Rapid & Blitz, eight tour regulars and two wildcards will get another chance to display their skills under immense time pressure. Taking place in Zagreb, Croatia, the SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz continues to be one of the major stops in the Grand Chess Tour.
Fans should make sure to catch all the action online via the Saint Louis Chess Club’s Twitch & YouTube channels.
