Fide didnt include the linares/morelia in rating list,
Anand still officially World no 2........ :(

something i suspected before. this means anand has to hold on to his supremacy for next 10 months to become world no 1.

btw, India chess associatin has protested and maybe something happens.

Good to see rediff promoting chess. I never get to hear about chess news on espnstar or any other sports channel.

Nice job rediff. Maybe Anand is not as good as kaspy or fischer but he sure is the best Rapid chess player of all time.
cheers

He infact is our true sports icon!

While our junta mostly admires and also curses other "popular sports" figures across the country, Viswanathan Anand alone has stood out on sheer performance over the past 2 decades, which is quite exemplary and extraodinary by all standards and very much worthy emulating. Be it classical chess game or rapid or skittles (Comparable to a cricket test match,one dayer & 20-20 respectively)he has demonstrated and established his prowess in all forms of the game. And very importantly, he has managed to handle all his success in a very dignified manner and has kept a clean slate devoid of any controversy what so ever. I wish him all the very best and hope that he would continue to excel and bring more laurels to our country!! May God bless him and give us many more such great personalities!

Srikanth,

You are absolutely correct here! It should be people like Anand who should get more accolades than the cricketers like Sachin (made of God size!)
