Signed, Sealed, and Delivered

It’s the start of the 84th Ukrainian Chess Championship’s opening ceremony staged in the halls of the Lviv Regional State Administration. The playing list includes eleven of the strongest Ukrainian male Grandmasters, and only one (smiling) girl, Women’s World Chess Champion Mariya Muzychuk. Photo: Ukrainian Chess (Facebook).
