  • The 20Th Maccabiah Games, an International Jewish Multi-Sport Event, Featured 10,000 Athletes from Over 80 Countries
    The 20th Maccabiah Games, an international Jewish multi-sport event, featured 10,000 athletes from over 80 countries. In the summer of 2017, over 1000 athletes from the USA traveled to Israel to compete in the third-largest sporting event in the world. Six juniors played chess in Haifa, along with three open competitors in Jerusalem. In the junior section, Joseph Zeltsan led wire-to-wire to win the first Maccabiah chess gold medal in United States history. Zeltsan won his first three games, including a slugfest with silver medalist Ezra Paul Chambers of Burundi. Zeltsan ceded only one draw, in a fourth-round match ​ ​ with bronze medalist Daniel Savchenko of Germany. “I was lost, then he blundered and I could've won, but I missed the win and found a draw instead, which is probably fair,” said Zeltsan, a top-ranked junior from the Bronx. The entire USA team performed well. Simona Nayberg of California was the top female finisher in the event. She and Eitan Genger of Florida scored 4.5 points to tie for 3rd-5th place, both narrowly missing out on a bronze medal due to tiebreaks. Kevin Ordet, also of Florida, braved a tough schedule in his first FIDE rated tournament, finishing with 3.5 points. Max Weinstein of New Jersey, participating in his second Maccabi Games, finished strong after a tough start to end with 3.5 points as well. Rose Dreizen of Manhattan got off to a great start in her first international tournament. She was tied for second after four rounds, and finished with 3 points due to challenging late-round matchups.
