2021 New Zealand Championship

While most National Championships were upended by 2020, the New Zealand Championship has managed to keep going. Last years event happened before Covid-19 restrictions began to take place, while the 2021 is happening in a post-covid NZ. The major change is the championship, which normally attracts a lot of players from overseas, is a NZ resident event this year. Nonetheless it looks to be pretty competitive, with 24 players in the top section.

Two rounds have been played so far, and the results to the championships and other events can be found at https://newzealandchess.co.nz/ There is also a link to a live broadcast of the top 4 games.
