Although his team (Switzerland, for those who don't know) only managed a silver medal performance at the 11th European Senior Team Championship Korchnoi himself obviously held down first board with a magnificent series of games. Let's compare:


Korchnoi in 1955
Korchnoi todayI think it's a toss between the two but general consensus is that Korchnoi betters with age.

As long as he keeps playing people we'll keep watching but I think the best part about him is what he's given back to chess through sharing his genius with the younger generation. Botvinnik shared with the soviets and Korchnoi shared with the world.
