Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This one-day four-round Swiss is designed for players rated 1400 and up in the Open section, with a separate Reserve division for those under 1400, making it accessible across skill levels. The G/60 time control offers a nice balance between having time to think and keeping the tournament moving at a brisk pace. Entry fees are reasonable, especially if you register before June 3rd, and the event is held in Chattanooga on a single Saturday in June.
