SHORT TAKES : Kasparov Favors Playing in U.S.

LYON, France —  World chess champion Garry Kasparov, who played in the United States and France to defend his title, says he’d like to play the next tournament entirely in America.

Kasparov said Tuesday that the United States can open “new horizons” for chess.

He and Anatoly Karpov played the first 12 games of the 1990 championship in New York and the final 12 in Lyon, completing the final game Monday.

Kasparov clinched the title in the 22nd game and assured himself a $1.7-million share of the $3-million prize money with a draw Monday. Kasparov also won a $1-million diamond-studded trophy in the shape of the letter K.

The next world championship final will be held at an undetermined site in 1993.
