Slate has really put out a few pieces of great chess journalism in recent years.

No doubt Caruana had a great tournament. (And had a bit of "bad luck," as he had Nakamura busted in their second game.) Before Caruana gets tagged with top contender in the 2016 match cycle, though, we should keep watch on the progress of Nakamura's new St. Louis neighbor, Wesley So: http://www.rappler.com/sports/philippin ... stractions and http://www.chess.com/news/28th-death-ma ... ement-6824
