In the ninth game of Bobby Fischer's My 60 Memorable Games, we witness Fischer battling to save a half-point against Edgar Walther at the 1959 Zurich tournament. Playing as Black in a sharp Sicilian Najdorf, Fischer found himself in massive trouble, on the verge of resignation as Walther built a dominating position. However, Fischer’s resilience and resourcefulness came to the forefront in an instructive opposite-color bishop endgame, where he managed to secure a hard-fought draw. In this analysis, I’ll break down the key moments, including Fischer's defensive brilliance in the endgame, showing how opposite-color bishops can offer tremendous drawing chances even in dire situations.
