| Tilburg Interpolis (1984) |
|
"It was inopportune for Tony Miles to achieve the best result of his chess career and, perhaps, even the best result ever by an Englishman while the focus of attention of the chess public was directed towards the world championship in Moscow. Miles has just won an all-Grandmaster (Category 14) tournament at Tilburg, Holland, by a margin of 1½ points. Of course, it is easier to win tournaments when Karpov is not playing but don't forget that at the previous two tournaments at Tilburg, Karpov won by the minimum margin of half a point whereas Miles's lead of 1½ points gives him a rating performance for this tournament better than either Karpov or Kasparov." (Keene) The 8th Interpolis tournament was a Category XIV event (Elo average 2595) which was somewhat overshadowed by the concurrent Karpov - Kasparov World Championship Match (1984/85). Twelve GMs competed in the all-play-all (round robin) format, from 1 pm onwards but without any evening session. Total prize fund was 80,000 Dutch guilders, with 6,000 guilders to the winner. Chief arbiter Constant Orbaan was assisted by Geurt Gijssen. Tilburg, the Netherlands, 3-17 October 1984 Age Elo* 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2
