Patrick G Wolff (b. February 15, 1968) is a United States chess International Grandmaster. Wolff won the United States Chess Championship in 1992.
In 1988, in a game played in New York, Wolff defeated the world champion Garry Kasparov in just 25 moves with the black pieces. The game is given in algebraic chess notation:
1.c4 e5 2.g3 Nf6 3.Bg2 c6 4.d4 exd4 5.Qxd4 d5 6.cxd5 cxd5 7.Nf3 Nc6 8.Qa4 Be7 9.O-O O-O 10.Be3 Ng4 11.Bd4 Nxd4 12.Nxd4 Qb6 13.Nc3 Qh6 14.h4 g5 15.Nxd5 Bd8 16.Rac1 gxh4 17.Rxc8 hxg3 18.Nf3 Nh2 19.Rfc1 Rxc8 20.Rxc8 Nxf3+ 21.exf3 gxf2 22.Kf1 Qd2 23.Nf6+ Kg7 24.Ne8+ Kh8 25.Qe4 Bh4 0-1
This game, although played as part of a simultaneous exhibition against several masters, was one of Kasparov's shortest losses in his career.
