Spain's veterans championship kicks off tomorrow in Roquetas de Mar. The Campeonato España Individual Veteranos 2026 brings together the country's best 50-plus players for a grueling nine-round Swiss. Control runs 90 minutes plus 30 seconds per move, so expect classical chess with real teeth. Round one pairs start at 3 PM UTC, and the tournament runs through mid-October. This is where Spain's elder statesmen settle things.
