But I still don't see it as marathon.
I also don’t perceive this tournament as a marathon, because one or two weeks can truly turn the standings upside down. Someone with even a small number of points can break into the lead, completely unexpected for everyone else. In sports competitions like this, you can never eliminate the significance of luck and fortune. This in no way downplays the importance of planning and strategy, but far from everything is decided by a rational and measured approach to the game.
