Chess Center
Criag Clawitter
Craig is 22 years old and resides in
Mission Viejo. Craig started playing
chess at the age or five but gave up the game shortly thereafter. He started
playing again when he turned fourteen.
During the last year Craig's rating has
soared by almost 400 points! He's now a Chess Master. Craig credits his
phenomenal success to two things:
-
The book Secrets of Modern Chess
Strategy by IM John Watson which opened his eyes to how chess theory has
evolved over the last ten years
-
And learning the French Defense, a
reliable response to e4, which has helped make his game more
solid.
Craig is a great inspiration to young
players as well as "old duffers" who can still learn a trick or two.
Craig is available for private coaching. Contact Craig!
