Indian Grand Master Vishvanathan Anand became the winner of the World
Chess Championship held in Mexico.
He gained 9 points.
Armenian GM Levon Aronyan dashed our hopes taking the penultimate 7th
place. At the last 14th round Aronyan lost to Vladimir Kramnik. The
latter took the 2nd place with 8 points. Boris Gelfand caught everyone
unawares taking the 3rd place with 8 points. Though Gelfand is an
experienced GM, he didn’t rank among the tournament favorites.
