THE BIG LOSER

Vladimir Kramnik who refused to take part in a reunification tournament for the world title, a refusal evidently justified in view of the fact that the conditions have changed to his disadvantage, must have an unpleasant memory of this tournament.

In Sofia, Kramnik didn’t play up to his usual high standards, instead, his play was riddled with imprecisions. Bad strategical choices and especially two disastrous losses against Anand and Topalov are obviously not a good omen for the start of the summer season.

Come on Vladimir…Be strong
