Mikey Grove is tearing it up in Prague. Undefeated and a half point off the lead, starting rank 84, currently sitting 14th with some nice results in the first six rounds. Good chance of being on one of the 9 live boards tomorrow. Games start at 3pm UK time.

Mikey is indeed tearing it up! Yesterday's win saw him wipe out a 2284 in 25 moves. I personally feel this great play he is displaying is all down to his 'coach'
