The World Seniors is one event that seems to grow in popularity each year. The 2023 edition begins today in Italy, with 300 players across 3 sections (50+, 65+ and Women's 50+). Each event is headed by a GM, with Michael Adams the top seed in the 50+, John Nunn in the 65+ and Nona Gaprindashvili in the Women's. Australia only has one representative (Aurel John-Buciu) but New Zealand has 7. There are also 27 GM's playing across the event, with 16 in the 50+
Due to the timezone difference I don't think the frst round has started just yet, but you should be able to keep up with the tournament at https://www.worldseniorchess2023.com
