In Response To: GRANDMASTER TITLE AWARDED TO ZDENĚK ŽIŽKA (Rick Janowski)

With Zdenik in the game, maybe Mochy and I should award him a special scholarship not to play so that the rest of the college players in the world have a chance! This is a terrific accomplishment for anyone, much less for such a young man.

Now, think back....I know we don't have a great method to truly compare, but what other players in the history of the game could be counted among the best in the world under 20 years old?

I know Sly (Joe Sylvester) was a top player at 18. Anyone else?
