Gareyev gets blindfold Guinness World Record

In early December 2016, Grandmaster Timur Gareyev accomplished an extraordinary feat: he played 48 opponents simultaneously, while blindfolded, in an exhibition which lasted upwards of 18 hours. That achievement has now earned him the official Guinness™ World Record, eclipsing the previous record of 46 boards set by German FM Marc Lang in 2011. Recently we reached Gareyev for an interview as he was on tour in Astana, Kazakhstan.
