Andrew Kayonde is an inspiring chess personality. He is not only an IM and the Zambian Champion, but he is also an accountant and practices chess everyday in his busy schedule to move towards his aim of becoming a grandmaster.

In the first round of the World Chess Olympiad 2018 he managed to draw his game against none other than Vassily Ivanchuk. There are many 2700+ players in the world, but Ivanchuk comes under a completely different pedigree. We ask Andrew about the game, how he managed to draw and at the same time we also talk to him about chess in Zambia and how he plans to take his game to the next level - the GM level.
