Timeline
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.
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.
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.
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).
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.
Although he has never reached supergrandmaster status (Elo 2700 or above), he has had major tournament victories in international competition.
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.
Since 2000, his tournament successes continued.
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.
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.
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.
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.
In 2010, he came third at the World Chess Open in León.
In 2011 he won the 29th Andorra Open.
He won the Bulgarian championship again for three consecutive years, in 2013, 2014 and 2015, and again in 2023.
