Horgen 1994
Compiled by suenteus po 147
--*--

The Credit Suisse Masters was an all grandmaster event held during the international chess tournaments organized in Horgen, Switzerland in 1994. Twelve grandmasters, including the world champion, competed in the round robin format. The participants were (in order of ELO): Garry Kasparov (2805), Alexey Shirov (2740), Boris Gelfand (2680), Predrag Nikolic (2655), Artur Yusupov (2655), Joel Lautier (2645), Viktor Korchnoi (2615), Joel Benjamin (2610), Viktor Gavrikov (2600), Anthony Miles (2600), Christopher Lutz (2580), and Peter Leko (2555). The average of the combined players' ratings qualified the tournament as a category XVI event. In the wake of his split with FIDE, Kasparov was determined to prove himself the true world champion and his performance here was typical of his determination. Kasparov dominated over his contemporaries, finishing undefeated with +6 at the final, a full point and a half ahead of shared seconds Shirov and Yusupov. The final standings and crosstable are as follows:

01 Kasparov 8.5/11 * 1 1 = = 1 1 1 = = 1 =

02 Shirov 7/11 0 * = 0 = 1 = 1 1 1 1 =
