by Gary Lane (Author)
In the 1990 World Championship match Gary Kasparov shocked the chess world with his adoption of the unusual Scotch opening, which had for many years been considered a poor relation to the Ruy Lopez (or Spanish Game). However, in that match and subsequently Kasparov has introduced a variety of exciting new tactical ideas which have completely transformed the reputation of the Scotch into a powerful winning weapon and it is now highly fashionable at grandmaster, tournament and club levels.
