When talking about the greatest chess players of all time, we often talk about Magnus Carlsen or Garry Kasparov and compare their weaknesses and strengthens.
Not long ago, however, Magnus Carlsen was very young and still on his way to become one of the world’s strongest grandmasters. At that time, a Super-Grandmaster from India dominated the chess world, became World Chess Champion and defended his title for many years against various challengers such as Vladimir Kramnik, Boris Gelfand and Veselin Topalov.
It should be obvious who we’re talking about – Vishy Anand. He was the undisputed World Champion from 2007-2013. Although today Vishy Anand lives in the shadow of Magnus Carlsen, we should not forget that Anand has won almost every title a professional chess player could wish to win. Moreover, it is important to note that with an ELO rating close to 2800 Vishy Anand still joins the top chess players in the world. Last but not least, an interesting fact is that Anand became India’s first grandmaster ever when he was 18 years old.
In this video GM Eugene Perelshteyn takes a closer look at the “Tiger of Madras” and an outstanding game he played against GM Veselin Topalov in the World Championship Match in 2010. Eugene sheds light on this game and shows us one of Anand’s best chess games.
