Tournament Review

BUGOJNO, Yugoslavia — The world champion, Anatoly Karpov of the Soviet Union, scoring three points out of his last four games, has surged forward to share the lead with Jan Timman of the Netherlands in the Bugojno International Tournament.. Each had 7½ points after 12 rounds.


Drawing with a former world champion, Boris Spassky, in the ninth round and with Milan Vukic of Yugoslavia in the 11th, Karpov pulled out of a difficult opening against Ljubomir Ljubojevic of Yugoslavia, who sacrificed a piece unsoundly to lose in the 10th round. Karpov smashed weak opening play by Vlastimil llort of Czechoslovakia in the 12th round.


Timman defeated Robert Huebner of West Germany in the ninth round by an unsound pawn sacrifice when Huebner mishandled the defense. Timman was then held to draws by another former world champion, Mikhail Tal, Spassky land Ljubojevic.


Spassky, with seven points, had a chance to move up from his third-place position with the playoff of his Postponed game with Svetozar Gligoric of Yugoslavia.
