Two great events and two predictable winners! Yes, Kramnik already won Dortmund with a round to go. He's still unblemished but Carlsen could not escape a loss. Kramnik breached the 2800 during the tournament on the Live Chess Ratings list. It is very clear that he is now back to his best. Expect a surge from here. Anand, Carlsen - guys, you better look out. Both the tournaments had a sprinkle of the future Chess World order - Maxime Vachier, Caruana, Quang Leim, and Anish Giri. Nakamura? Well, allow him to create his own destiny. Hard to predict! What do you think of the future of Chess?
