Correspondence game from John Wharam

John Wharam, who teaches at Woodbridge School and is Adam Hunt’s boss, is a Senior International Master at Correspondence Chess.   You can read all about him here in an article from a couple of years ago.

John has provided detailed analysis on a recent game he played for England on Board One in the European Team Championship 2014, against a Correspondence Grandmaster from Latvia:

John continues: “Winning this game nudged my rating to 2451, just above the 2450 minimum that is needed to enter a GM norm tournament. So, that will be next major challenge, and then in 2016 or 2017 I’ll use the qualification for a World Championship Candidates tournament that I gained by winning a Semi Final of the World Championship back in 2014.”
