Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
I think Anand has been in lockdown mode due to the coming match with Gelfand. You won’t see his best preparations until then.
Anand is not such an interesting champion like Kasparow. Kasparow was always fighting and Anand picks a couple of games in one match.
No wonder the eyes are focussed on the next generation during his ‘reign’.
say what you want about Anand. He is still the world champion and will remain to be so for another year
