Pictured above, left to right, are FIDE Treasurer 诸宸 (Zhū Chén) and FIDE Vice President Nigel David Short vainly trying to save their own marriage in the mixed double match against four-time Women’s World Chess Champion and Rhodes Scholar 侯逸凡 (Hóu Yìfán) & 余泱漪 (Yú Yāngyī), who dominated and won (with 4½ points out of 5) the 2019 深圳 (Shēnzhèn) 罗湖 (Luōhú) All-Star Chess Tournament in 深圳 (Shēnzhèn), China. Second place was won (with 3½ points) by the “odd couple” Maia Grigorievna Chiburdanidze & 韦奕 (Wéi Yì) (with an age difference of 38 years!), while the post-80s couple Anna Yuriyivna Ushenina & 倪华 (Ní Huá) took third place (3 points). The other teams follow: 谢军 (Xiè Jūn) & Eugene Torre, 刘适兰 (Liú Shìlán) & Arkadij Naiditsch, and 诸宸 (Zhū Chén) & Short. Photo: Sina Sports.
