Bobby Fischer Forfeits Game 2

After GM Bobby Fischer's dramatic loss in round one of the 1972 World Chess Championship, the next game two days later was a major turning point in one of the most important matches in chess history. In fact, game two was never played—GM Boris Spassky won by forfeit after his opponent failed to arrive.
