Tigran L. Petrosyan continues successful performance in Bulgaria
STEPANAKERT, JUNE 10, ARTSAKHPRESS: As armchess.am website informs, GM Hovhannes Gabuzyan has 1,5 points.
Tigran L. Petrosian was born on 17 September 1984. His first name was deliberately chosen by his father to match the name of Tigran V. Petrosian, first Armenian who became the World Champion. When the late Tigran won the world title, Tigran's father dreamt that if he ever had a son he would call him Tigran. The ex-world champ died a month before Tigran L. Petrosian was born.
Petrosian learned chess at the age of five. He received coaching from Gagik Sargissian and Melikset Khachiyan before entering a chess academy in 2002, where he was occasionally instructed by GM Arsen Yegiazarian and IM Ashot Nadanian.
