Garry Kasparov was for many years the irrevocable World Champion of Chess. At Tel Aviv University in Israel, he made an extraordinary come back. <br /><br />Kasparov played against thirty students from the university and children from a scientific research group. After four hours of suspense, Kasparov defeated the last player. <br /><br />Some of the children that participated in the game were under the age of nine. <br /><br />The youngest player was eight-year-old Saar Drori, a chess champion from Israel. He used to play with older children, but playing against Kasparov was a memorable experience. <br /><br />[Saar Drori, Chess Player]: (Male, Hebrew) <br />"He was very aggressive during the game. I was able to resist him until I failed." <br /><br />Maybe Saar has a chance to be the next Kasparov. <br /><br />[Dan Drori, Saar Drori’s Trainer]: (Male, Hebrew) <br />"Saar is very talented and modest. He has the ability to learn from his mistakes. Each of his failure is a new lesson. I believe that he has the potential to become a champion." <br /><br />The young player did his homework before the game. <br /><br />[Saar Drori, Chess Player]: (Male, Hebrew) <br />"My trainer and I watched a lot of Kasparov’s games from the past to learn his technique." <br /><br />Saar’s dream is to play chess with Kasparov once again. <br /><br />This report was made by Aviva Grunpeter Photographer: Anat Markram <br /><br />NTD Tel Aviv, Israel
