[David Robertson]

Depressing reading in one significant sense, not least in the light of performances in the recent World Juniors.

Using 2014 as the base date, and counting through the birth-year deciles on the 'Open' list:

* 77% are aged 30+
* 48% are aged 40+
* 25% are aged 50+

And only 3% are u-18

If the thesis holds: what you haven't achieved in chess by 30, you won't achieve, then national prospects a decade hence are bleak indeed

[Mick Norris]

True, but the prospects for Senior chess must be better

I find I qualify today under the new definition, having been born in 1964

There must be lots of decent seniors about, so maybe we should concentrate our attention in that direction

[JustinHadi]

"what you haven't achieved in chess by 30, you won't achieve," - Tell that to Korchnoi, Kaufman, Gelfand,...
