Aug-14-15 | | Olavi: The winner Larsen started with two losses. Top tournaments won from that situation include Najdorf, 16,5/21 at the Capablanca Memorial 1962, and Beliavsky, 8,5/14 in Tilburg 1986. Are there others? |
|
Aug-14-15 | | diagonal: Not an international top tournament - still worth mentioning: Valentina Gunina, losing her two first games, finishing 7-0 at 64th Russian Superfinals women (ch-RUS) in Kazan 2014, winning the round robin tournament outright: Russian Superfinals (Women) (2014)/Valentina Gunina
Others? :) |

 | | harrylime: Spassky was the World Chess Champion whilst Bobby got his head together 👍 |

Jun-21-19 | | Howard: Petrosian's record during the second three-year period that he was WC, wasn't much better. |
