Still Thinking About Your Next Move?
IM Tania Sachdev

“One of the strongest opens. Brilliantly organized in a stunning country. I have played 4 times and still can’t get enough. The Reykjavik Open is a keeper!”

GM Hou Yifan – Women’s World Champion

“This was my first time to Iceland, to take part in one of the world’s great traditional open tournaments, the Reykjavik Open. I really liked the playing venue. The view from the playing table was the ocean, which always puts me in a good mood!”

“In general, I’ve done pretty well playing in Iceland. I think this is thanks to a mixture of the friendliness of the people, the respect chess obviously gets here and the fresh air everywhere, all of which combines to make me feel at home here.”
