Subject: Endgame - can white win this?
This position arose during a match at our club tonight. It ended up a draw,
but white felt he should have been able to win it. However, during the post
mortem, we couldn't find a conclusive way, and neither, it seems, can Fritz 9.

8/7r/2Kpkp1P/7R/4P1P1/8/8/8 w - - 0 1

Can anyone see a way for white to win against best play?

Cheers
Tony
