 Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the 2019 Gibraltar International Chess Festival, the one and only Vladislav Artemiev. Vladislav, a very, very big congratulations. Thank you very much, yes. First time in Gibraltar and you win it outright. What does this win mean to you? Yes, of course. Today I played with a strong Chinese grandmaster Yu Yan Yi and I don't have good preparation today because I finished my sleep only at 8 o'clock. But okay, I know that I will play after D4 and after E4. Before this game we played only in rapid and blitz and my opponent played with me two times D4 and we have once Greenfield and Slavyan defense. But here he wanted a win, I think only a win, so E4. Okay, usually I played C5 and neither openings, but now I choose C6. And okay, I looked at the safety variation when Karthikeyan beat Maxim. And in this moment I start feeling that if I do draw, I will play tie-break with Morali Karthikeyan. But okay, he is a talented young player, but I feeling that it will be Maxim if we have a tie-break. So, okay, I choose not to miss my won today and I not wanted a tie-break in this moment. Okay, what I can say, I am happy after this win. Before the game I was angry on the draw, I think, so I choose Karakam. But I waged this, my opponent was a real aggressive style. And okay, I have a good relax before and good sleep, so I was ready. So, you were taking the safety first approach, but if your opponent gave you the chance, you were ready to take it. Yes, my opponent gave me a chance today. If he wanted a draw, I think that it will be a draw. But okay, it's a sport and when you have a chance on the first place, you must take the risk for both, yes. Because if you have any ambitions, I also, if I have a different situation, play it on the win. If I have less half point, so okay. It was a big day for you today, were you nervous before the game? Yes, today is big day for me. I would like to say as I speak early, it's fortunately and big surprise for me that I have a good conditions because I have a study in university before this and I not have many times for the good preparation for training. But before when I have three months, I usually training, so it's normal, yes. Coming into this event at the start, what were your expectations or hopes from this event? When we start the first game, I very want to play in chess. So okay, I want a first game, I want a second game. And interesting that a very important moment was when I win to Renat Jimabayev. Because we have a normal position and Renat missed a draw. Okay, he thinks that he gives a mate, but fortunately for me. So I start understanding that I like it maybe. So would you say it was in this moment, this game against Renat that you started feeling and started believing that you will win this tournament? I think that after this I have possible feelings that I can beat different opponents because I understand that I have good conditions. Okay, but later I played with top players Nakamura, Vashjela Graf and Aranyan. And I would like to say that most difficult game for me with Aranyan was because I have good black PSs. And I was without chances on the win, only defending. But I played as well this game. And after this game, I understand that I must win in this tournament. And when I played with David Navara, I wanted to win. You played very consistently and you mentioned that your game against Lev was the most difficult. According to you, which was your best game in this tournament? Best game? I think that I have many interesting games. Good game I have with Nakamura. My opponent in the last moment has a chance after 9-3. Okay, game with Vaibhav Nakamura and David Navara are interesting, but my opponent is not like when he has passive positions. So I try QA7. Yes, it's a very practical choice for me. 8.5 out of 10, 27 rating points and 25,000 pounds to take back home. A successful start to the year? Yes, of course. I'm not waiting for this start of year. It will be a great performance for me. It's strange when you have a big rating cost me, when you have 27 plus. Yes, so okay, it's very well. I think that I do is better my level in the world chess now. Okay, my goal is a world cup maybe, because if you want to play in a candidate tournament, you must qualify. You have any options, Grand Prix or a world cup, but a world cup, you have table breaks maybe, and it's interesting. Okay, European Championship maybe, I will play. And how important is winning the Gibraltar Masters in your career? Okay, usually I was famous as a great player in Rapid and Blitz, because example on the last world championship in Rapid, I shared second place, but I rank it a little less, but okay, great result, Magnus Carlsen also fifth place. In classic, I was also a good Grandmaster, because I have a normal rating in the top 100, but it's my first big such result. I winning different tournaments, but not famous as Gibraltar chess festival, so I hope that maybe I have invitation in the future, and I will try to play this good. Super player today, how are you going to celebrate now? When I return my home with my wife, I can start my dinner, celebrate dinner, maybe with music. I have only four days, because I later will short training camp in Moscow, but five days and I back again. I'm sure you are looking forward to celebrating it with your family. Now, does your wife also play chess? My wife also play in chess, but not professionally. She has a rating example of 2100, a feeder master. But she good understanding me, and she watch all my games when I play here, and it's our common one, I think. Super, now finally give us your impressions about playing in Gibraltar overall as an event. Okay, Gibraltar is, as I speak, a very good tournament with many strong players. Also, good place, because I have two times every day when I have a wall cut on the street, on the game and after game. And not many less than how I have fresh air. Yes, and it's a good atmosphere, and I hope that I return in the future. We hope you return as well, and with your consistent and brilliant play here, Vlad, you have been a deserving champion of the Gibraltar Masters. Congratulations once again.
