En 2024, el Sparkassen A-Open ocupará un lugar central en el festival de ajedrez más prestigioso de Alemania. Con Dmitrij Kollars y Frederik Svane, dos jugadores nacionales alemanes competirán contra grandes maestros internacionales poco antes de la Olimpiada de Ajedrez y jugarán por la bolsa de premios de 20.000 euros para los torneos abiertos.

Dinara Wagner superó recientemente a Elisabeth Pähtz por primera vez en la clasificación femenina alemana y actualmente tiene un punto más en su haber.

The organiser IPS e.V. is particularly pleased with the outstanding interest shown by all club players in the open tournaments. The A-Open has been fully booked for some time and is fully occupied with 200 participants at a minimum rating of 1900. There are already 164 players registered for the B- Open. The maximum limit of 200 participants will therefore also be reached here. Anyone interested in registering for the B-Open should therefore register via the website as soon as possible.

In the A-Open, the Ukrainian GM Anton Korobov from SC Viernheim leads the seeding list ahead of the two top German players Kollars and Svane. There are also several grandmasters from different generations at the board in Dortmund. On the one hand the youngest GM of all time Abhimanyu Mishra (current rating of 2604), on the other hand experienced top players such as Rafael Vaganian, born in 1951, who has held the grandmaster title since 1971.

In addition, the Sparkassen Chess Trophy promotes women's chess beyond the main match, so that IM Klaudia Kulon, the winner of the International German Women's Championship 2024, has been invited and other strong female chess players are represented in the A-Open.

The Sparkassen Chess Trophy 2024 starts on Saturday 10 August with the A-Open and B-Open. The first game will be played on Sunday in the match between Pähtz and Wagner. The B-Open has a rest day on Tuesday, 13 August and ends on Saturday, 17 August. The A-Open and the match end on Sunday, 18 August. Admission is free at all times, catering will be provided on site and spectators are very welcome.

Detailed information on the tournament, announcement and venue can be found at www.sparkassen-chess-trophy.de. Registration for the B-Open is still possible. Live spectators are welcome to attend the tournament free of charge.
