Magistral de Ajedrez Ciudad de León, the oldest tournament in Spain. Gelfand will face elite grandmaster Leinier Domínguez, Russian prodigy Andrey Esipenko and Spain’s vice-champion Jaime Santos.
The organizers intend for the tournament to be played over-the-board on 8-12 July, as long as sanitary conditions allow it. As the date approaches, the organizers will work in parallel to have everything ready to convert it completely into an online tournament, if necessary a modality that gave the 2020 edition massive following all over the world.
