Vitaly Valerianovich Tseshkovsky ((ロシア語:Виталий Валерьевич Цешковский), September 25, 1944 – December 24, 2011) was a Russian chess Grandmaster and a former champion of the USSR. Tseshkovsky (Cieszkowski) was born in Omsk (his noble ancestors lived in Volhynia). He was awarded the International Master title in 1973 and became an International Grandmaster in 1975. His best tournament victories include first at Leipzig 1975, Dubna 1976, Yerevan 1980, Banja Luka 1981, Sochi 1981 and Minsk 1982. He was co-winner of the 1978 Soviet Championship (with Mikhail Tal) and winner of the 1986 Championship.〔Cafferty & Taimanov 1998, pp. 179, 202.〕 He beat some world champions: Vasily Smyslov at the Moscow Spartakiad 1974, Tal at Sochi 1970, and a young Garry Kasparov at the 1978 Soviet Championship. Tseshkovsky himself almost qualified for the World Championship candidates matches when he finished fourth in the 1976 Manila Interzonal, one place lower than was needed to progress to the next stage. At the 27th Chess Olympiad in 1986, he scored 2½/5 as the second reserve board to help the USSR team win the gold medal.〔(OlimpBase Men's Chess Olympiads Vitaly Tseshkovsky ).〕 His 6/9 result in St Petersburg, 2004 qualified Tseshkovsky to play in the Russian Championship final later in the year, alongside Russia's seven top players (including Garry Kasparov who won) and five other qualifiers.〔(ChessBase.com - Chess News - St Petersburg wrap-up – part 2 ).〕 In 2010, he tied for 2nd-4th with Algimantas Butnorius and Nikolai Pushkov in the European Seniors’ Rapid Championship.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=GM Viktor Kupreichik Wins European Seniors’ Individual Rapid Championship )〕 In the opening, his choice was 1.e4 with the white pieces. With Black he played the Ruy Lopez, Sicilian Defence, Pirc Defence and Modern Defence against 1.e4, and against 1.d4 he most often played the Grünfeld Defence and Benko Gambit. Tseshkovsky maintained a high standard of chess throughout his career, registering his highest Elo rating of 2600 in October 2005. As a coach, he assisted with the training of many high profile players including Vladimir Kramnik, Bartlomiej Macieja and Boris Savchenko. He died on 24 December 2011 in Krasnodar.〔(【引用サイトリンク】script-title=ru:Ушел из жизни Виталий Валерьевич Цешковский )〕 == Notes == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vitaly Tseshkovsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
