The Kasparov Chess Foundation organized the third annual KCF University Cup in February this year. The tournament, which attracted well over 500 university students from every continent, was won by Texas Tech University. Francesco Bortolussi, who played board 4 for the winning team, sent us a first-person account of the tournament itself and of the team’s visit to New York City, where they had a training session with the legend himself, Garry Kasparov! | Photo: Alexander Onischuk
