Magnus Carlsen Leads 4-2 In World Chess Championship
Norwegian sensation Magnus Carlsen leads by 4-2 against Indian Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand in World Championship 2013.
Magnus resumes his quest for a maiden world chess crown on Monday after grabbing a formidable 4-2 lead at the half-way stage of his title duel with reigning champion Viswanathan Anand. Carlsen tilted the scales in his favour with two consecutive wins in the fifth and sixth games of the 12-round world championship being played in Anand's home city of Chennai after the first four games were drawn.
The 22-year-old Norwegian, the current world number one and pre-event favourite, needs two wins and a draw in the remaining six games to seal the title held by Anand since 2007.
