Granda CRUSHES opposition!
CONGRATULATIONS to my friend Julio Granda, age 49, for CRUSHING his grandmaster opposition in the strong Spanish tournament of Majorca with a fabulous score of 8.5 points from 9 games! This success will push the Peru superstar over 2700–something totally unheard of for players of his age.
Read below in the gallery also about how this great player is disrepected by his own federation, and why Granda has decided to no longer play on the Peru National Team.
