@chessduello: 🇦🇿 A 15-YEAR-OLD AZERBAIJANI PRODIGY DEFEATED KASPAROV! THE CHESS LEGEND WAS FURIOUS OVER THE PRIZE! ♟️🔥 The year was 2003. The Linares Chess Tournament... At just 15 years old, Azerbaijani grandmaster Teimour Radjabov sat across the board from one of the greatest chess legends of all time: Garry Kasparov. And he was playing with the Black pieces! Then came the unexpected. Young Radjabov defeated the world's number-one player, pulling off one of the most stunning upsets in chess history! 🇦🇿🏆 But the real controversy began after the game! Radjabov's historic victory was awarded the tournament's Best Game Prize. Kasparov strongly protested the decision, arguing that a game he had lost because of his own mistakes did not deserve such an award. Although Kasparov later admitted that his reaction had been excessive, he stood by his criticism of the prize decision. ⚔️ So, what do you think? Was Kasparov right to protest, or did 15-year-old Radjabov fully deserve the award? 👇 Share your thoughts in the comments! Follow ChessDuello for more incredible stories from chess history!
