Subject: (Supposed) Mate in 25 => Kasparov v. World (1999)

This position is actually one move after the end of the game. According to Garry
"after 62...Qc6+ 63.Kg5 it is a forced Mate in 25". Was he right? The position
below is after 62...Qc6+.

Best of Luck!

Of course, anybody with 6-man TBs can give us the answer right away. My
apologies if this has been brought up before; I couldn't recall....
