It was dedicated to the 60th birthday of the great veteran player, GM Svetozar Gligoric. Fifteen of the world's best grandmasters attended the round robin tournament held in August of 1983. The participants were (in order of ELO): Garry Kasparov (2690), Ljubomir Ljubojevic (2645), Ulf Andersson (2640), Mikhail Tal (2620), Yasser Seirawan (2605), Boris Spassky (2605), Jan Timman (2605), Lajos Portisch (2600), Anthony Miles (2585), Tigran Petrosian (2580), Gyula Sax (2570), Bent Larsen (2565), Predrag Nikolic (2540), Bozidar Ivanovic (2515), and Svetozar Gligoric (2505). The combined ratings of the players qualified the tournament as a category XIV event. Kasparov, who was on a winning streak following his shared first at the USSR Championship in 1981 and first at the Moscow Interzonal in 1982, had defeated Alexander Beliavsky in the candidates quarter-final match in April of '83. Garry Kasparov was the only candidate to participate in the event, and the momentum from his tournament and WC cycle victories propelled him to one of his best ever tournament performances here. He finished the tournament with an astounding 11 points out of 14 games, with former world champion candidate Larsen trailing him as clear second by two whole points. Kasparov would finish the year by defeating Viktor Korchnoi in the candidate semi-finals and go on to challenge the world champion Anatoli Karpov in 1984 Strongest tournaments of all time: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_strong_chess_tournaments#1980.E2.80.931989 You can see for 1983: 1983 Linares Spassky 1983 Wijk aan Zee Andersson 1983 Niksic Kasparov 1983 Gjovik Nunn, Adorján, Browne 1983 Tilburg Karpov Niksic is sandwiched between Linares and Tilburg! Notes from Wiki: Garry Kimovich Kasparov (Russian: Га́рри Ки́мович Каспа́ров, Russian pronunciation: [ˈɡarʲɪ ˈkʲiməvʲɪtɕ kɐˈsparəf]; born Garik Kimovich Weinstein;[1] born 13 April 1963) is a Russian (formerly Soviet) chess grandmaster, a former World Chess Champion, writer and political activist, considered by many to be the greatest chess player of all time.[2] Kasparov became the youngest ever undisputed World Chess Champion in 1985 at the age of 22 by defeating then-champion Anatoly Karpov.[3] He held the official FIDE world title until 1993, when a dispute with FIDE led him to set up a rival organization, the Professional Chess Association. He continued to hold the "Classical" World Chess Championship until his defeat by Vladimir Kramnik in 2000. He was the first world champion to lose a match to a computer under standard time controls, when he lost to Deep Blue in 1997. Kasparov's ratings achievements include being rated world No. 1 according to Elo rating almost continuously from 1986 until his retirement in 2005. He achieved a peak rating of 2851,[4] which was the highest recorded until 2013. He was the world No. 1 ranked player for 255 months, nearly three times as long as his closest rival, Anatoly Karpov. Kasparov also holds records for consecutive tournament victories and Chess Oscars. Kasparov announced his retirement from professional chess on 10 March 2005, so that he could devote his time to politics and writing. He formed the United Civil Front movement, and joined as a member of The Other Russia, a coalition opposing the administration and policies of Vladimir Putin. In 2008, he announced an intention to run as a candidate in the 2008 Russian presidential race, but failure to find a sufficiently large rental space to assemble the number of supporters that is legally required to endorse such a candidacy, led him to withdraw. Although he is widely regarded in the West as a symbol of opposition to Putin,[5] support for him as a candidate was low.[6] He is currently on the board of directors for the Human Rights Foundation. ►Subscribe for my regular chess videos: http://goo.gl/zpktUK ►Support the channel by donating via PayPal: http://goo.gl/7HJcDq #KCGarryKasparov #KCChess #GarryKasparov #Kasparov ♞ Challenge KC and others for turn style chess at http://bit.ly/33uVY8O
