No photograph of Kasparov illustrated better his intimidating rage, insatiable hunger, and utter domination than this jewel found in a regional archive. He's devouring Robert HΓΌbner for lunch in the 6th round of the Tilburg tournament, October 7, 1981.

Spassky vs Petrosian Moscow 1969 WCC match.
Before this match Spassky already lost against Petrosian in 1966 in a really close fight 11.5/12.5.
But in 1969 Spassky got stronger
and beated Petrosian with 10.5/12.5 (+6 -4 =13).From
1968 to 1970 Spassky was at his prime.

the way Tal reacts to Spassky vs Petrosian game is epic πŸ˜‚
Happy 20th Birthday to Wei Yi (World #18)! He reached the 2700 club at the age of 15, the youngest ever for this record.πŸŽ‚πŸŽ‰πŸŽπŸŽˆ

Jeffery Xiong is now the highest rated teenager in the world at 2684!

Of course Firouzja (2682), Sevian (2677), or Maghsoodloo (2665) could pass him in a heartbeat. First time in a long time it's been competitive.
White is OK!
Goryachkina finds the beautiful 72.Nh4!! and is on course to join Dzagnidze in the early Candidates Tournament lead!
