We whistle a happy tune with our cover this month, offering a nod to the Broadway classic The King and I, itself based on the novel Anna and the King of Siam. With Kamsky's third title and Zatonskih's fourth, this is truly a royal couple.

We offer 20 pages of U.S. Championship coverage by Mike Klein beginning on page 16, along with bonus coverage on page 54 in GM Benko's "Endgame Lab."
