Probably - but after yesterday can we be sure of anything until the results go up on chess-results.com?

The only issue I've encountered watching the matches for 2 days is having to refresh my screen once. Otherwise it's been perfectly reliable.Tim Harding wrote: ↑Wed Jun 22, 2022 5:26 pmProbably - but after yesterday can we be sure of anything until the results go up on chess-results.com?

In Today's 65+ England 2 vs Switzerland match, Stewart Reuben (age 83) will face Edwin Bhend (age 91)
I'm not sure if this is the highest total age possible in the tournament

Possibly not, but due to fixed board orders, not all high age pairings are possible and I'm not planning to wade through them all to checkMatt Mackenzie wrote: ↑Thu Jun 23, 2022 1:02 pmIs the latter the oldest person in it?John Hickman wrote: ↑Thu Jun 23, 2022 12:37 pmIn Today's 65+ England 2 vs Switzerland match, Stewart Reuben (age 83) will face Edwin Bhend (age 91)

Adams grinds another one out to give England an important 2-2 against the USA.

60 g4! a move of genius. England-1 are now in the lead in the tournament on tie-break.John Moore wrote: ↑Thu Jun 23, 2022 7:10 pmAdams grinds another one out to give England an important 2-2 against the USA.
And the 65+ first team are also in first place after an important win today (3.5-0.5 against Germany-1). France tomorrow.
The 50+ team play Hungary tomorrow while the US play Canada.
