New sponsorRadjabov won the World Cup in 2019 but to me this feels even more like a return to the very top of World Chess.

Next tour event doesn't yet have a name but is a regular 16 player event rather than a 12 player Major like the Airthings Masters was. Ding Liren has been voted in as a participant by Chess24 subscribers. The dates are 6th to 14th February 2021.
