Happy Birthday, Werner! May your day be filled with more joy than the moment you checkmated your way to victory at the 1975 Swiss Championship. Your legendary moves on the chessboard in the '70s still echo through Switzerland—rumor has it that bishops and knights across Zurich tremble when they hear your name!Even though decades have passed since you dominated Swiss chess, we know you're always several steps ahead of everyone else—in life as well as over-the-board. Here's wishing you another year full of brilliant strategies, endless laughter, and fewer stalemates off the board. Cheers to a true grandmaster!
