Baba Sy, the World Champion of 1963-1964 of 10x10 Draughts - Volume II - Govert Westerveld - Bog

Bag om Baba Sy, the World Champion of 1963-1964 of 10x10 Draughts - Volume II

This book should be considered a historical book, as it is the draughts'' career of Baba Sy, a prominent Senegalese player. He was able to be the best in the world without reading any books. He had a natural talent and was a self-made man thanks to the game of checkers. I have witnessed the achievements of the great Baba Sy and I have been in the early stage of the great players like Harm Wiersma and Ton Sijbrands, on which I predicted in 1964 that they would be a future world champions. So I know the mentality that one must have to succeed in this mind sport. My 40 year stay in Spain and my research on the Moors permits me to know more about the Islamic custom. And so I am now in a much better position than 40 years ago to comment properly on the life of Baba Sy.
