Tournament Live Broadcasts #8372

On Lichess, there are now more and more tournaments that are broadcast live. These currently include the Magnus Carlsen Invitational, for example. Recently, the Tata Steel was also included as an OTB tournament.

However, I think that the broadcasts could be expanded even further. For the official major tournaments, it would be very nice to have an up-to-date table and maybe not have the games all lined up in a row, but sorted by rounds or something.

If I want to see the standings or which round is currently running, I always have to do it on another website.

Since the broadcasts on Lichess often have an audience of 1000-3000, I also think it would be worthwhile to expand the area because the interest is there.

It would be a big project, but I think it would be worth it because of the interest!

Rounds are now implemented.

Standings for major events like Tata Steel or Candidatesare usually added by the broadcasts team manually with markdown although it would be great if they could be automatically generated in the future.

For other events where not all boards are transmitted there may be some limitations or difficulties.

There has been a major redesign to the broadcast page recently.
