Magnus Carlsen wins 4th World Chess Championship

  • Posted by Chess Rising Stars Academy

  • Date 29th November 2018

Magnus Carlsen demolished Fabiano Caruana 3:0 in rapid tiebreaks on Wednesday to retain his World Championship title for another two years. He was defiant afterwards about his decision not to play on in Game 12, saying Garry Kasparov and Vladimir Kramnik were, “entitled to their stupid opinions”, while he explained, “one of the things I’ve never done very well is listen to other people’s advice. I’ve always gone my own way… and it’s brought me this trophy today!”

Relive the final day of the 2018 World Chess Championship with our commentary team of Anish Giri, Peter Svidler and Alexander Grischuk, with the added bonus that in the hour before the action started in London they played blitz against each other:
