The last press conference in Wijk aan Zee looked like one: winners Aronian and Carlsen answered questions from the press about their joint victory.

    Why there is no game-speaking press conference from the last round

  6. magnus on 28 January 2008 15:18 PM

    Magnus was the best of course!

    Well Done Magnus!! All the Best !! Future No.1!!!

    I’m very impressed by Carlsen’s play. He really deserved to win the tournament. Ditto for Aronia though I’m not surprised by his result. He’s already among the very best in the world and a worthy successor to the great Tigran Petrossian.

    What was the last sentence from Levon?

    What a great guy he is! I am Norwegian, and of course a Magnus-fan, but I must say Levon is a very likeable person!

    Levon said “and my best moment was when he didn’t win.” chuckles. I had to listen to it a couple times to catch that.

    Well, well, well

    Well is the answer!

    Amazing how “well, uh” got to be the ubiquitious start of any answer :-)

    Could it be that Magnus is “the one”? His play reminds me of the late, great you know who. Fighting in every game to win. Long live Magnus and chess!!

    “well eeh” do they start with every sentence

    Is there any video from the closing-ceremony?

  15. Me on 29 January 2008 8:39 AM

    Bravo Levon:)))!!!

  16. Me on 29 January 2008 8:46 AM

    Levon is a Proud of our nation!!!

  17. Me on 29 January 2008 8:49 AM

    Oops not proud, a pride

  18. Garrick on 30 January 2008 1:55 AM

    Nice guys can finish first!!! Congratulations to both!

    Go Magnus! I predict he will soon be #1 in the world.

    Not only is he a great chess player - he’s also cute… :D

Got something to say?
