Saturday, 03 May 2008
Today we publish the interview with Shakhriyar Mamedyarov (Azeri: Şəhriyar Məmmədyarov). He is the top Azeri player in the April 2008 ELO list, with 2752. Shakh belongs to a family  of chess stars: his two sisters are WGMs. Shakh told us about his ambitious plans to be the world's number one.

This young man was already twice world junior champion (2003 and 2005). What's the secret of his successes, and what went wrong in recent tournaments? What does he expect from the Azeri team at the FIDE Olympiad in Dresden 2008?
