Watson was British Rapidplay Chess Champion in 1992 and British Chess Champion in 1994. Boris Spassky once described his style of play as that of a drunk with a machine gun.[1] Nowadays a practicing tax lawyer and a partner at Slaughter and May,[2] Watson has for many years been inactive as a chess player.
