The following year Navara won the individual gold medal on board two at the 40th Chess Olympiad in Istanbul playing for the Czech team.
David Navara (born 27 March 1985) is a Czech chess grandmaster, the highest-ranked of his country.
In 2001, aged 16, he made his debut on the Czech national team in the European Team Chess Championships, where he scored 7/9 points.
Awarded the title of Grandmaster by FIDE in 2002, he is a 12-time national champion (in 2004, 2005, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2023).

In 2003, he won the open section of the Rubinstein Memorial.
Since 2003 Navara has played several matches against top players in Prague at the ČEZ Chess Trophy festival.
Ranked 14th, he finished sixth in the 2004 European Individual Chess Championship in Antalya scoring 7½ points (+5−2=5), including a draw against the eventual champion Vassily Ivanchuk.
This result qualified Navara for the 2005 FIDE World Cup, where he was eliminated by Predrag Nikolić in the first round.
In 2006, at the 37th Chess Olympiad he scored 8½ points from 12 games against world-class competition.
The next year, Navara was invited for the first time into the supertournament in Wijk aan Zee, where he replaced Alexander Morozevich.
In August 2007 Navara finished first in the Ordix Open, a rapid tournament part of the Chess Classic Mainz festival, with a score of 9½/11 on progressive score tiebreak.
The following month, he played in the Czech Coal Carlsbad tournament in Karlovy Vary, where he finished third, scoring half a point behind the winners, Ruslan Ponomariov and Sergei Movsesian.

Below is an excerpt from an article by Lubomir Kavalek in The Washington Post on August 3, 2009:
In the following game, played in the Ordix Open, the Czech grandmaster David Navara defeats former top Armenian grandmaster Rafael Vaganian.
Navara decides to test a powerful pawn sacrifice in the Tarrasch variation of the French defense.
It was introduced into tournament play more than 60 years ago by the Australian Cecil Purdy, the first correspondence world champion, and it still carries plenty of punch today.
Vaganian's problems began after he lost the battle of the only open file and allowed the Czech GM to claim victory with neat tactical play.
Navara tied for first place with Luke McShane by finishing with 8½/13.
While McShane finished ahead on tie-breaks, both players received invitations to the top "A" group next year.
Later in the same year, Navara also took part in the FIDE World Cup; he lost to Alexander Grischuk in the quarterfinals of the competition.
Navara, nicknamed Navara Express by organizers, gained 6½ points in 13 games (+3−3=7), including wins against Ruslan Ponomariov and Magnus Carlsen (and draws with black pieces against Vladimir Kramnik, Viswanathan Anand and Veselin Topalov), and finished in 7th place.
He won the European Blitz Chess Championship in 2014.
He received the title Grandmaster one year later, three days before his 17th birthday.
In April 2018, he participated in the fifth edition of Shamkir Chess, finishing tenth with a score of 2½/9 (+0−4=5).
Navara won 9 national blitz chess championships, most recently the 2019 Czech Blitz Championship with a score of 14/15.
Navara became European blitz chess champion for the second time in 2022, finishing with 17½/22 in Katowice.
He defended his European blitz title a year later in Zagreb with 11½/13.
