IM Irina Krush, reigning US Women’s Champion, has confirmed her participation in the Reshevsky Memorial Invitational Tournament to be held at Texas Tech University from November 9 to 16, 2007.
Also confirmed is legendary GM Boris Gulko, reigning US Open Champion and former Soviet and US Champion, and GM Gilberto Hernandez (head coach of the UTB chess team), one of the top Grandmasters from Mexico for many years.
SPICE and the Susan Polgar Foundation (SPF) are very thankful for the generous donation by Dr. Eric Moskow to make this outstanding event possible. He is not only a generous sponsor to various chess events around the world, but a formidable opponent to anyone as well. Dr. Moskow will personally take part in this inaugural International tournament at TTU.
More names will be announced as they are confirmed.
Way to go! I’m glad Irina, Boris and Gilberto are playing.
Irina is one of my favorites, but I will be cheering for Eric Moskow to win this tournament. Go Eric. Knock ’em dead. Blow ’em out of the water. Push ’em off the board.
Remember what Bobby said.
Make a different move, lose a different way.
