🔹 Viswanathan Anand
🔹 Indian chess Grandmaster
♦️ Viswanathan "Vishy" Anand is an Indian chess grandmaster, a former World Chess Champion, and the current World Rapid Chess Champion.
Anand became India's first grandmaster in 1988.
▪️ Full name: Anand or Anand Vishwanathan[1]
▪️ Country: India
▪️ Born : 11 December 1969 (age 49) Mayiladuthurai, Tamil Nadu
▪️ Title: Grandmaster (1988)
▪️ World Champion: 2000–2002 (FIDE) 2007–2013
▪️ FIDE rating: 2767 (February 2018)
▪️ Peak rating: 2817 (March 2011)
▪️ Ranking: No. 9 (October 2017)
▪️ Peak ranking : No. 1 (April 2007)
♦️ Anand’s first tilt at the World Championship cycle took place during the last of the traditional FIDE cycles that had been established after World War II, albeit a cycle cut short at the final by Kasparov’s split from FIDE in 1993. Anand kicked off his world championship campaign when he won the gold medal at the 1990 Asian Zonal Championship, qualifying for the Manila Interzonal later that year. He came third at that Interzonal, half a point behind co-leaders Vassily Ivanchuk and Boris Gelfand, thereby qualifying for the Candidates Matches. In 1991, he defeated Alexey Dreev in Chennai in the first round of Candidates matches, but lost to Anatoly Karpov in Brussels in the quarter finals.
