congrats to caruana
Geesh, and the guy I was rooting for all the time and thought of having the best chances to win finished last place. For Aronian it's gotta be one of these events you'll never forget, no matter how hard you try.
Congratulations, Fabiano ! But it's an Everest to challenge Magnus.
Well done Fabi, good luck against Drunkenstein!
Caruana is the most threatening of the challengers for Carlsen's title: for sure Caruana is hard-worker, he will be backed-up with a top GM team for home preparation and - even if Carlsen is the favourite - who knows if Caruana can repeat a "Sinquefield 2014" performance again when it matters.
Carlsen-Karyakin was à championship of draws.... Or will be a more challenging match.
I was rooting for Sergey Karjakin, but Caruana deserved it overall. Also, thank you to Vladimir Kramnik and Alexander Grischuk for the entertainment they provided.
Was rooting for Aronian, but... uhm... this is a little bit difficult...
Still though, the fact that Caruana bounced back from the Round 12 loss to Karjakin was quite exceptional.

Сергею Карякину в борьбе с претендентами, просто помешала нервозность и патриотизм в ожидании итогов выборов в России. Поэтому 1 часть турнира он сильно нервничал и сомневался в победе В. Путина. Но когда Путин все-таки победил, все пошло как надо. Т.е. в поражении Сергея виноват только Путин))))))))))))))))))))))
