Robert Fischer citáty
page 2

Robert James Fischer známy aj pod menom Bobby Fischer bol americký šachový veľmajster.

Slávnym sa stal ešte ako tínedžer vďaka svojim šachovým schopnostiam. V roku 1972 sa stal prvým americkým šachistom s titulom svetového šampióna. Po víťazstve nad Borisom Vasilievičom Spasským získal vtedy rekordný predinflačný rating 2785. Roku 1975 odmietol obhájiť tento titul po tom, ako FIDE nesúhlasila s jeho podmienkami, takže ho bez boja získal Anatolij Jevgenievič Karpov.

Napriek vážnym psychickým ťažkostiam, predčasnému dôchodku, antisemitizmu , sektárstvu a pod., bol Robert Fischer geniálny šachista a zaslúžil sa o nebývalý rozvoj a popularitu šachu na Západe. Wikipedia
