The main sports event of the day will take place in the national
Theatre of Opera and Ballet after Alexander Spendiaryan. A rapid
chess tournament is expected here between the World Cup holder Levon
Aronyan and World Chess Champion Vladimir Kramnik.

The tournament will be comprised of six games. Every day the sportsmen
will have two meetings. 25 minutes will be given for the whole tour
plus 10 seconds for every step.

"Levon Aronyan is in good condition and is ready for the tournament,"
RA Chess Federation said lately. He held a training in Jermuk, where
Grand Masters Gabriel Sargsyan, Ara Minasyan and Arman Pashikyan
helped him.
