The Winton British Chess Solving Championship, held annually, features six rounds of various chess problems. John Nunn, a dominant figure in the event, claimed his tenth title this year, edging out David Hodge by a narrow margin. Hodge, a previous winner, nearly surpassed Nunn on the final problem but ran out of time while submitting his answer. Nunn's impressive track record includes being a three-time individual winner of the World Chess Solving Championship and earning the title of International Solving Grandmaster in 2004. Concurrently, the Open event was won by Joost Michielsen from the Netherlands. Additionally, a Minor event showcased emerging talent, with 12-year-old Ukrainian prodigy Maksym Kryshtafor taking the title. Kryshtafor, who gained international attention as a refugee after fleeing the Russian invasion in 2022, has previously been an Under-8 champion. The championship continues to highlight both seasoned solvers and new talents in the chess community.
