Menjelang Perebutan Juara Catur Dunia Anand vs Carlsen 2013

Selang waktu beberapa malam lagi, dunia catur akan kembali tersuguhkan perebutan tahta tertinggi gelar juara dunia catur. Sang juara bertahan adalah pecatur India, Vishwanathan Anand. Vishy Anand, berumur 43 tahun telah menggenggam gelar tersebut lebih dari 6 tahun semenjak kemenangannya di turnamen Juara Dunia tahun 2007 di Mexico City. Anand kemudian mempertahankan gelarnya dalam 3 duel dwi tarung catur, yaitu melawan Vladimir Kramnik (2008), Veselin Topalov (2010) dan Boris Gelfand (2012). Dalam kurun waktu dunia catur melahirkan calon penantang baru, yaitu si bocah ajaib dari Norwegia, Magnus Carlsen. Tidak seperti ketiga lawan Anand sebelumnya, Magnus Carlsen adalah pecatur yang hampir tiga generasi di bawah Anand. Magnus Carlsen sekarang berusia 22 tahun dan masih fresh tanpa pernah mengikuti turnamen juara dunia sebelumnya. Namun sebagai pecatur dengan elo rating tertinggi dalam sejarah, Magnus Carlsen adalah penantang paling serius yang diyakini pakar catur, sangat berpeluang menggusur singgasana Viswanathan Anand.

Kejuaraan Dunia Catur 2013 yang mempertemukan Vishwanathan Anand vs Magnus Carlsen akan diadakan di kota Chennai, India. Yang juga merupakan kota kampuang halaman si Anand. Partai pertama segera dimainkan tanggal 9 November 2013.
