Fischer returns to take on the world
SVETI STEFAN. Yugoslavia. Aug 31: Hidden away nn a for Uae llke island, -elusive US chess ■ genius
Bobby Fischer is preparing for a comeback his Yugoslav promoters call the "revenge match of the 20th century", reports Reuter.
The US government, however. calls It sancUons-busting
The enigmatic Fischer, who vanished from public view after winning the World Championship in 1972. has been lured form his mysterious self imposed exite to play a 5 million dollar return match against Boris Spassky, his old rival for the world title
The prospect of his return has caused a storm in chess circles, still dazzled by Fischer s meteoric and quarky career In the 195Os and 60s
The world chess revenge match of the twentieth cen tury" proclaim posters. T-shirts and bumper stickers featuring line drawings of the two ageing stars, and an । equally large portrait of the or-। ganlser. Serbian businessman I Jezdimir Vaslljevlc
I Fischer s 1972 match with the then Soviet Spassky was more than a game. For many it was the cold war played out on a chessboard amid accusaUons of cheating and even spying.
Twenty years on. a different political slorm is brewing.
The US treasury department has warned Fischer he could be fined up to 2.50.000 dollar and even sentenced to 10 years in jail for violating UN Sanctions punishing Serbia and Montenegro for their part in the Yugoslav conflict
Vaslljevlc. whose own business origins are shrouded in secrecy, insists the match has nothing to do with politics. He has, he says, offered half a million dollars of sponsorship money to help red cross relief
work in the region "Bob Geldof did something like this, and the world makes him a star lie complains referring to the Irish rock star behind
Live Aid" famine relief for Ethiopia
As the clock ticks towards the first game oi Wednesday, chess experts', •".reamped in this elite montengrin resort are unsure whether to expect a show of world class chess — or a sad twilight performance by two has-beens
The first to win 10 games will win.
"After a certain time not playing chess you lose that nervous energy which is vital." said Yugoslav grandmaster Dragoljub Veiimirovtc Fischer hasn't played for 20 years
That means his energy level is zero, like a baby "
Spassky now a gentle manly. 55 year-old naturalised Frenchman, still plays tn tournaments but has dropped to 101st place in world rankings. As for Fischer, nobody knows how good he is or why he is playing again
Some say he is broke. Some say his 18-year-old girlfriend. Hungarian chess star Zita Rajscannyi. put him up to it
Many are still doubtful the match will be held at all. and Fischer is keeping them guess-irtg
He rarely leaves the closely -guarded Sveti Stefan island, shuns reporters and is absorbed in hour after hour of practice.
Local residents who have become keen "bobby-spotters" devour details gleaned from staff at tile Island hideaway.
They say he eats seven eggs and two water melons for breakfast and likes Yugoslav folk music", says one barman.
Renowned for his love of smart suits. Fischer has reportedly ordered at least six from a local tailor.
Rarely seen in daylight. Fischer has made a number of late night Inspections of the hall where he is due to play
Behind doors closely guarded by musclemen. Fischer spent three and a half
hours picking holes in match arrangements
A sneak visit to the hall reveals an empty space where the two masters should meet. Stx tables with inbuilt chessboards litter the room like discarded levs.
"So far he's rejected six or seven tables." said match director Janosz Kubat.
This is Just the sort of quirky behaviour Fischer fans know and love. At the 1972 match tn Reykjavik, he complained about the lighting, seating and noise In the audience but won the 24-game series by 12-1/2 points to 8.1/2.
Il is Fischer s apparent physical degeneration that has alarmed his old friends and fans.The slender, alert, well-groomed young man of the 1960s. is now podgy and balding with listless eyes, a reddish beard and a waddling walk. Whatever his performance. however, many local Yugoslavs see the former en-fanl terrible as a welcome rebel for their cause.
"When he played chess, he always seemed to be up against the rest of the world." says Goran, a Belgrader In charge of a focal hotel. "Now he's in Yugoslavia, joining us against the rest of the world."
