Zürich:Caruana won the rapid chess


Grandmaster Fabiano Caruana showed some excellent
chess today in the rapid`s in Zürich. The Italian scoret
4 points in 5 games, smashing World Champion Magnus
Carlsen. With normal point countings Caruana would
have been the overall victor. As it was more points,
2 points for victory in the standard games, he had to
settle for second place with 9 points – one point behing
Magnus who disappointed today being owned by
Caruana and Aronian. Aronian came third with worse
Sonnenborn Berger then Caruana. Ex world champion
Vishy Anand yet again had a terrible day with 1 out of
5. But he ended in 5th overall with 5 points.Vishy`s days
seems over. His attacking play has diminshed. Most
probably he will go on playing open tournaments in
the future. He seems without chance to win the Candidates
tournament in March. The Tiger from Madras has given
us much joy during the years, but his best days are definitely
over.Read the final report in ChessBase.
