In the semi-final of the 1950 USSR Championship I lost six games in a row and in the first nine rounds I scored just one point! At the finish I gained something of a revenge for my misfortunes, scoring five out of six. This tournament also did much to make me "battle-hardened"

@JustChessSports I was lucky to meet him twice and spend time with Viktor. R.I.P. greatest never to win the world championship.

"Mis ídolos en el ajedrez eran José Capablanca y Boris Spassky. Cuando logré vencerlo fue la mayor de las victorias y, en cierto sentido, derrote a algo dentro de mí al vencer a mi maestro"

RIP Boris Vasilievich Spassky

One of the most talented players of his generation, the 10th World Champion Boris Spassky has passed away at the age of 88.

Spassky was considered a chess prodigy. He attained the Grandmaster title at the age of 18 and made his debut in the Candidates Tournament (Amsterdam, 1956) at 19.

After defeating Keres (1965), Geller (1965), and Tal (1965) in Candidates matches, he earned the right to challenge Petrosian but lost the title match (Moscow, 1966). Spassky made it all the way up again in the next cycle and won the crown in his second match against the ninth world champion.

Spassky played seven times for the Soviet Olympiad team (1962–1978). In 1976, Spassky immigrated to France; he competed for France in three more Olympiads (1984–1988).
