Welcome !!

This website features the early career of Grand Master Teimour Radjabov, one of the greatest players to ever walk the Earth. From the age of 17, where he finished a very strong third at the World Championship, you can trace back his meteoric rise going down to his earliest recorded games.

Here you find in reverse chronological order news features, pictures, interviews and games you can download. Watch the prodigy dominate the European 18 and under Championship when he was only 12. Play beside him at 15, in his first Linares appearance and gasp in awe as he destroys the ego-filled Kasparov.

Up to date news on Teimour can be found on chess sites like ChessBase and The Week in Chess. Almost all his games can be easliy found in ChessGames.com.

Since turning 18, Teimour has won the likes of the Ordix Open ahead of over 500 players, the European Club Cups, Dos Hermanas, Wijk aan Zee, the World Rapids Championship and many more, producing countless of memorable games. Radjabov keeps on getting stronger so the best is yet to come. Having a website featuring his greatest games would mean updating almost everyday. Not to mention helping his opponents prepare for their games against him!

He hopes for a clearer and a more stable world championship cycle. A return to the Candidates Matches where the real stronger player emerges leading up to the traditional one-on-one world championship match is called for. The short knock-out games format had transformed the world championship into a mere lottery draw.
