15 October, 2005 


Atlast the World Chess Championship, San Luis 2005 series came to an end.

Indian Grandmaster Anand, Vishwanathan (2788) became the Vice-Champion of the series. Topalov, Veslin(2782) of Bulgaria became the Champion of 2005 World Chess Championship.

Anand, retained his second rank in the world rankings. His thurst of 1 one still remains unshakable. He always maintained his rank in world ranking as a northern star. Many have came and gone in 3rd rank in the world but Anand's rank never changed.

One more raival in the World for Anand, who came to 3rd ranking in the World is,Topalov. Others are Leko, Peter(2751) of Hungary and Ivanchuk, Vassily (2748) of Ukrain.

In th whole series Anand Vs Topalov had two matche and both mathces ended in draw. This also shows the tough game between the two Grandmasters.

Anand recently settled permanatly in Spain, because of his problem in attenending matches, which are mostly in Europe. Anand is said to be one of the worlds few rapid players. Anand mostly likes white pieces to play and his favorite opennings are Sisilian diffence and Ninzo-indian-Diffence,

It is very informative when you analyze these games :). because Chess is the only game where you can recreate the played games.

Let us wish Anand all the best to his next series World Chess Cup Khanty-Mansiysk 2005 on 26 November 2005.

Though I don't know much about Chess(other than basics),I feel proud of any individual who brings laurels to India.As I regularly read news about Anand,he is one individual, who is keeping the Indian flag flying high for quite a long time steadily in International scenario.

Anand,The whole country is at your side and keep going!!Congratulations for another feather in your cap and good luck in future events to come.I'll be extremely glad and thankful,if you can do something for propogating and improving the game in India and guide the future generations,so that the mantle is carried without a break!!

Excellent, love it! » »
