Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
i seriously doubt it. the uscf is a worthless bunch of losers, absorbed in themselves, looking out for themselves, while alienating the US players from the rest of the world.
did you ever think why US players are so little invited to play elsewhere? USCF is one of the big reasons. they’ve thumbed their noses to other federations and to FIDE. we can all cry sponsorship is weak but USCF is so lead astray by leadership (i use that word loosely), that their financials are horrid and we don’t get real value for our dues.
where does the money go? not to holding events, either national or international…
I was going to mention USCF also has many events waiting for sponsorship.
