The Return of the Jedi
For the second time the town of Khanty-Mansiysk in what was once Russia’s Wild East hosted the World Cup. A total of 128 players were welcomed with warm Siberian hospitality, although they may also have wondered why they were once again competing in this distant out-of-the-way place where there’s hardly any interest in chess. At the end of seven gruelling rounds none other than Gata Kamsky defeated Alexey Shirov in the final to win the 120,000 dollar first prize and to gain the right to play a match against Veselin Topalov. Misha Savinov watched the action from the bustling first rounds right through to the lonely final and gives a blow-by-blow account of a survival race that ended with an epic comeback.
