Chess Masters: Anand held by leader Caruana


World Champion Viswanathan Anand drew with Fabiano Caruana of Italy in the third round of fifth Final Chess Masters in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Anand, in fact, had to defend for a long time against the youngest participant here and it was only after a stubborn defence that the Indian ace could force a draw. The lead positions remained unchanged and Caruana continued to top the table with seven points with a soccer-like scoring system that is being followed. Aronian, with five points, comes second with seven rounds still to come while Carlsen is a point behind. Anand, with three points earned from three draws, is in fourth spot, a point ahead of Vallejo Pons while Karjakin remains at the bottom of the table with just one draw so far.
