Restless Youth

Former Soviet and Latvian Grandmaster Evgeny Ellinovich Sveshnikov today welcomed and greeted personally the five-time Women’s World Chess Champion Nona Terentevna Gaprindashvili at the Riga International Airport in Riga, Latvia. But, of course, it was not just a matter of gallantry. In fact, tomorrow (and the day after tomorrow) they will play an exhibition six game Rapid chess match in Jūrmala, so don’t miss the live coverage of Chess-News.ru!
