In team chess, Adorjn has an excellent record. Competing at the Chess Olympiad of 1978, he helped Hungary to capture the gold medal from the Soviet team who
had convincingly won the event twelve consecutive times
from 1952 through 1974. His further participation in
1984, 1986 and 1988 contributed to a top ve nish on
each occasion. Compatriots Lajos Portisch, Ribli and
Gyula Sax were also at the peak of their playing strength
during this period.
Adorjn has also worked over the years, sometimes secretly, as a second to Garry Kasparov and to Peter Leko,
helping them to prepare for important World Championship matches. He is known as a leading expert on the
Grnfeld Defence, which has been favored by both Kasparov and Leko.
