About: 2014 Sinquefield Cup
The 2014 Sinquefield Cup honored the founders of the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis, featuring world-class players: GM Magnus Carlsen, GM Levon Aronian, GM Veselin Topalov, GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, GM Hikaru Nakamura, and GM Fabiano Caruana. Held from August 27 to September 7, it was a double round-robin tournament.
It was the strongest chess event ever held on U.S. soil. The original chess set used in the tournament had a 3.75" King height. The players competed for a $100,000 top prize. The highlight was Fabiano Caruana’s dominant performance, defeating Carlsen and winning the coveted Sinquefield Cup.
