mikealando: Another winning Q sac by Candela! She won the Women's World Junior Championship 5 days ago on the 2nd of October with a brilliant Queen sacrifice as black in a game that was a must win for her. Great play. [Event "FIDE World Junior Chess Championships U20"]

|
mikealando: That's why we have the Best of each year. Bobby Fischer was the very BEST in 1972. (Actually even by 1970) Spassky was the best in 1966. And today Carlsen is the number 1, on clear merit -:yet still has his detractors. |
