Vishy wins the chess world championship


Vishwanatahan Anand (it think Vishy is better...:) ) won the world championship beating Valdmir Kramnik this week....an awesome achievement considering he won it in a sport which does not have the financial muscle and physical backing as cricket has in India.

Vishy has won in all major forms of chess (rapid and the traditional form) and this goes on to prove he is once in a lifetime player.....attributes which i believe which set him apart from others are ;-
1) His very modest and earthy mature
2) High levels of concentration (chess is the most mentally demanding of all sports...probably a reason a dimwit like me is not gud at it)
3) Dedication and discipline towards a goal.......
and a lot more attributes.....

Hope i can imbibe a few of these attributes....

Way to go Vishy.....we are proud of ya.....
