Which gm said that "Chess is 99% tactics"?

[grobchess]

@Penguincw2 Teichmann

[jarethmcc1]

@grobchess it more than 99% tactics its 100% tactics

[grobchess]

@jarethmcc1 I didn't invent the phrase, but I would disagree with you nonetheless. Without some positional understanding and opening mastery, there's no possibility to be the best. For an example, look up IM Emory Tate.
