Daily Rome Shot 735

White to move.  Mate in 2.

NB: I’ll hold comments with solutions ’till the next day so there won’t be “spoilers” for others.

I had to share this…

It’s the final day of the Global Chess League 2023. Levon Aronian’s Triveni Continental Kings and Maxime Vachier-Lagrave’s UpGrad Mumba Masters face off in the finals. The teams that led for the majority of the event, Viswanathan Anand’s Ganges Grandmasters and Magnus Carlsen’s SG Alpine Warriors, wound up being pushed out of their slots for the finals. The Warriors got pasted yesterday 18-2. The finals are today 2 July at 9:30 AM EDT (13:30 CET).

    The golf shot cracked me up. My husband may have missed seeing it on TV.
    God bless you, Father; may your mother be healing through Gabriel’s healing power.

    How surprising, and how lovely, to find puntarelle so early in the summer. Buon apetito!

    That golf shot! Some British readers of this log will know what I mean when I recall an old lager (beer) TV advert that paid homage the The Dambusters: “I bet he drinks Carling Black Label”.
