Время публикации: 02.04.2012 15:46 | Последнее обновление: 02.04.2012 19:25

Chessdom has published that the Linares tournament planned for April of this year is officially cancelled. They provide an explanation from the technical director of the tournament - Francisco Fernández Albalate. The reason is not financial, but rather "lack of dates in the calendar". The tournament was planned to be held in two cities - Linares and Mexico City. However, the agreement coudn't be reached with the Mexicans.

Last year the tournament was also cancelled. Back in January 2012, during the Wijk-aan-Zee tournament, Linares organisers announced that their tournament would probably be held at the end of April.
