Now they scramblin to put the Ultra-Knight Star idea on their chessbase site -chessboxing! hehe i just saw it there but us Africans dont know nuttin! heehe. Peace.
All native Americans, right?
Yes, #5 Yasser Seirawan is always been playing consistantly well and always seems to be in the top 5 USA players for some 30 years or so.
“US players …?”
What else is new? The US has always been a country of immigrants and refugees. Jim Thorpe was the last native American athlete.
Any Americans on the Top US list, or do the US have to rely on the brainpower of immigrants and other foreigners? 😉 (like they did during the second world war)
Funny, noone either from top 10 men or women list was born on American soil 🙂
