Imagine the AA participants walking to the tournament hall on that gorgeous red carpet… All of them wearing uniforms of the country they play…general staff and adjutants of course!
So an amazing Chess feat seems to have happened…
-
this month in St. Louis. Fabiano Caruana scored 8.5 out of ten possible points in an elite chess tourney. The six man tourney with the lowest ranked player being number 9 in the world was won in amazing fashion.

I’ve been following it occasionally, and it was quite amazing to see Caruana crush one great player after another. I’m not quite sure whether it would qualify as the best tournament performance ever, because it’s difficult to compare achievement from different era’s. But its sure ranks among the greatest victories in the history of chess.
