This week's Wednesday Workout concludes our series on tactics from the 2024 American Cup. Be sure to check out last week's worksheet, as well as our two Tactics Tuesday worksheets, as well.
The 2024 American Cup kicks off at the Saint Louis Chess Center, tomorrow, March 12. The ten-day blowout showcases 16 top American players in an unusual double-elimination format consisting of both classical and rapid head-to-head matches across two eight-player fields (Open and Women's). The event boasts a $400,000 overall prize fund (with $250,000 designated for the Open and $150,000 for the Women's event).
