Who is the strongest British chess player of the 20th century? Unquestionably Michael Adams is the strongest British player of the 21st century and indeed he had eclipsed myself already by the late 1990s. However, I would argue that my achievement in reaching the 1993 World Championship is the single greatest achievement by a British player during the 20th century. I have been ranked third in the world, for a period of 18 months, Michael has never been higher than fourth. Others doubtless beg to differ with what is, after all, a subjective opinion, but that is why the opening sentence says "widely regarded" and not "is". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nigel Short (talk • contribs).
