| Sep-07-15 | | Bruce Graham: In 1991 Vladimir Kramnik and in
1997 Ruslan Ponomariov both won world junior championships. |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | sonia91: Bruce Graham> No, Kramnik and Ponomariov won the World <Under-18> Championship (which is different from Word Junior Chmpionship, which is an Under-20 competition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World...): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World... |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | Bruce Graham: <sonia91> I see. I think. Thanks for the correction. |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | fisayo123: <alexmagnus> So, of the last world champions since Spassky, and it makes sense to start counting from him, four have won it, excluding Fischer (who didn't play), Kramnik (who didn't play?) and Carlsen, (who I think played in the world cup). Four out of seven won it. A pretty good return. |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | fisayo123: Aronian won this at age 20, btw. |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | Bruce Graham: <fisayo123> Thanks for digging. I guess my point is that there is/was some incredible talent in the Juniors. |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | dumbgai: <The winners of world junior championships rarely (though not never - Karpov is a notable exception) became "actual" world champions.> Maybe that's because there are a lot more world champions (a new one every several years, sometimes a decade) than world junior champions (a new one every year)? |

 | | HeMateMe: Didn't Fischer win a suitcase one year, and a typewriter the next year? or, was it two typewriters in a row? |
|
| Sep-07-15 | | Gryz: <Maybe that's because there are a lot more world champions than world junior champions ?> Stannis would say: "fewer". |
|
| Sep-08-15 | | Pedro Fernandez: <<HeMateMe>: does Britishland have a capital? I'm trying to place it, on the map.> Indeed do you has taken in serious my "Britishland" my great fiend? I don't think so. Well, "apparently" London was founded by Julius Caesar. Nor Britishland should be a derogatory epithet, lol! |
|
| Sep-08-15 | | Pedro Fernandez: Thanks GRAHAM by you reply. You know, sometimes one forgets so important countries like New Zealand and Australia, indeed a serious mistake just by ignorance, sorry!. Greetings my friend. |

|
| Sep-13-15 | | Clemens Scheitz: ....y de eso no me cabe la menor duda |
|
