Ο Άναντ διατήρησε τον τίτλο του Παγκόσμιου Πρωταθλητή επικρατώντας του Κράμνικ με 6,5-4,5.
Έχουν γραφτεί πάρα πολλά για την αναμέτρηση τους που δεν θα προσθέσουμε εμείς κάτι παραπάνω. Απλά δημοσιεύουμε ένα πολύ ενδιαφέρον κομάτι από σχετικό αφιέρωμα στον κορυφαίο Ινδό Σκακιστή.
"With this official and undisputed World Championship, Anand has won every big event that has been organized during his career. In fact, he’s the first player to have won a world championship in three different formats. In the year 2000 Anand won the FIDE World Chess Championship which was a knockout event, in 2007 he won the World Chess Championship which was a tournament of six players, and now he has won a World Championship match. If he didn’t yet belong to the list of great names starting with Steinitz, Lasker and Capablanca, he now sure does - nobody can deny it anymore. After all, today Anand has beaten the man who beat Kasparov."
