Timeline

1965

Kiril Dimitrov Georgiev (Кирил Димитров Георгиев; born 28 November 1965 in Petrich) is a Bulgarian and Macedonian chess grandmaster, and seven-time Bulgarian Chess Champion.

1983

Georgiev first caught the eye of the chess world in 1983, when he became the World Junior Champion with an unusually strong score of 11½ out of 13.

This result automatically gave him the International Master title.

Two years later, FIDE awarded him the Grandmaster title.

1984

In the process of becoming the Bulgarian Champion of 1984 (shared), 1986 and 1989, he rapidly became recognised as Bulgaria's number one player, taking over from Ivan Radulov and eventually giving way to Veselin Topalov.

He has represented his country at the Chess Olympiad many times, playing on either board 1 or 2.

1986

He was a winner at Sarajevo 1986 (and would meet board boy Ivan Sokolov there again, some 15 years later), San Bernardino 1988, Elenite (Burgas) 1992 (ahead of Sokolov, Topalov, Josif Dorfman, Yuri Razuvayev and Vassilios Kotronias) and the 1993 Budapest Zonal (ahead of Judit Polgár and Ľubomír Ftáčnik).

1988

At the 1988 World Blitz Championship in Saint John, Canada, Kiril Georgiev finished third after eliminating world champion Garry Kasparov (3 - 1) in the quarterfinal.

In the semifinal he lost to Rafael Vaganian (3.5 - 4.5).

The tournament was eventually won by Mikhail Tal.

Although he has never reached supergrandmaster status (Elo 2700 or above), he has had major tournament victories in international competition.

1990

In 1990, he qualified for the Interzonal Tournament in Manila and placed a creditable 14th out of 64, surpassing expectation and losing only to Alexei Dreev.

1995

He repeated his Elenite success in 1995 (with Topalov, ahead of Nigel Short, Boris Gulko and Sergey Dolmatov) and won at Belgrade 2000 (ahead of Alexander Beliavsky and Ulf Andersson).

1997

At Groningen in 1997, he lost in round 4 to Loek van Wely.

2000

Since 2000, his tournament successes continued.

2001

First at Sarajevo 2001 (his first Category 16 tournament win - ahead of Topalov, Ilya Smirin, Alexei Dreev and Ivan Sokolov) and first at Bad Wörishofen 2002.

2002

From 2002 to 2004, he was affiliated to the Macedonian Chess Federation, to which he returned in July 2018, after playing under the FIDE banner.

Exceptionally, in 2002 he played for Macedonia, while he was temporarily resident there.

2005

At Gibraltar Chess Festival, he was joint winner (with Levon Aronian, Zahar Efimenko, Alexei Shirov and Emil Sutovsky) in 2005 and the outright winner in 2006 (ahead of Short, Sutovsky, Shirov, Vladimir Akopian and Viktor Bologan) with an 8½/10 score.

This was also the year that he won a bronze medal at the European Individual Chess Championship (behind Zdenko Kožul and Vassily Ivanchuk).

At the Aeroflot Open in Moscow, he finished only a half point off the lead.

Accordingly, these results have caused his Elo rating to advance rapidly during 2005 and 2006, reaching 2680 in July 2006, and placing him at number 26 in the (FIDE) World's 100 top players.

Georgiev has also participated in the World Chess Championship cycle.

2009

In December 2009, he tied for 1st-4th with Georg Meier, Julio Granda and Viktor Láznička in the 19th Magistral Pamplona Tournament.

In 2009, he broke the world record for the most simultaneous chess games played: 360 games in just over 14 hours.

He won 284, drew 70 and lost 6 for a total score of 88%.

A score of at least 80% was required for the record to be accepted.

2010

In 2010, he came third at the World Chess Open in León.

2011

In 2011 he won the 29th Andorra Open.

2013

He won the Bulgarian championship again for three consecutive years, in 2013, 2014 and 2015, and again in 2023.
