The seventh Memorial was played from 6-13 May 1993. Again it was a doubled rounded event of four players. Main organisers were Lies Muller as director and Geurt Gijssen as arbiter. Short started with a loss against Kramnik. In the last round he played a great attacking game against Anand. Nigel won and became first. When Kramnik asked why he resigned against Short in the fourth round, he answered: "I was stupid". A lucky win against Piket, gained him the second place. When Short and Kramnik catch up with Anand in the last round, Vishy was deeply disappointed. Piket played an unfortunate tournament. He gave away two better positions by blunders. |
