Geocache Description:


Anish Kumar Giri (Nepalii: अनीश कुमार गिरि; Russian: Аниш Кумар Гири; born AB June CDEF) is a Dutch chess grandmaster. A chess prodigy, he completed the requirements for the grandmaster title in 2009 at the age of 14 years, 7 months and 2 days. Giri is a five-time Dutch champion (2009, 2011, 2012, 2015, and 2023), and has represented the Netherlands at seven Chess Olympiads (2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2022, 2024).
