An astonishing performance by Alekhine. Euwe and Capablanca were missing and Lasker was more or less retired at this point – apart from them, the world’s best players were present and in this stellar field, Alekhine managed 15/16! The games are widely available; I took them from [2]. The crosstable was taken from [1]. The dates were sent to me by Mr. Philips Jurgens, quoting [3].
