Battle of the Titans
Raymond Keene
New York and Lyons: the two arenas of the last contest for the World Chess Championship between the two greatest names in chess today. The Champion: charismatic Garry Kasparov, the youngest ever holder of the title and possibly the greatest player in history. The Challenger: Anatoly Karpov, World Champion for 11 years before Kasparov took his crown, and the record-breaking winner of over 80 top class tournaments. Already, these two giants of the chessboard had faced each other a record 120 times in World Championship play, from the controversial unfinished marathon of 1984-5 to the nail-biting tied contest of 198?
