Subject: K+Q vs. K: always mate in at least 8 moves?

Author: Robert Ericsson

A friend of mine claims that the stronger side will, from any start position,
deliver a mate in at least 8 moves in a K+Q vs. K endgame.

Is his claim correct? If not, how many moves would be the correct claim?

Kind regards,
Robert
