There is just no way you could miss this chess show. World's No. 1 chess player Magnus Carlsen put chess behind him and became a grandmaster in a whole new sport! Watch this chess interview.
The Zurich Chess Challenge (Kramnik vs Aronian) is the most prestigious chess training match ever held. The average rating of the players, Vladimir Kramnik (Russia) and Levon Aronian (Armenia), is 2810, which means that the forthcoming Zurich Chess Challenge may be considered the strongest chess event of the year. Nominally, it even surpasses the world chess championship match which will be held in Moscow in May. The six-round match between Kramnik and Aronian will take place from 21 to 28 April 2012, with rest days on 23 and 26 April. Check official website here.
