A major highlight of this year's Chess Olympiad was the stellar performance of the India 2 team. Composed mostly of teenage grandmasters, it finished third and narrowly missed gold. Grandmaster RB Ramesh was the coach of the young team. When he recently was in the Paris suburb of Asnieres to share his experience with 25 French coaches, he talked to Dhananjay Khadilkar about the Olympiad, his career, his students, the secrets of becoming a good coach, and more. | Photos: Dhananjay Khadilkar
