FIDE World Chess Championship 1998

The FIDE World Chess Championship 1998 was contested in a match between the FIDE World Champion Anatoly Karpov and the challenger Vishwanathan Anand. The match took place between 2 January and 9 January 1998 in Lausanne, Switzerland. The challenger was determined in a tournament held in Groningen, Netherlands, between 9 December and 30 December 1997. After the championship match ended in a draw, Karpov won the rapid playoff, becoming the 1998 FIDE World Chess Champion. Background From 1948 to 1993, the world chess championship had been administered by FIDE, the international chess federation. In 1993, World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov split from FIDE and formed a rival organisation, the Professional Chess Association. FIDE stripped Kasparov of his title, meaning there were now two rival championships: the FIDE title, held by Anatoly Karpov, and the PCA title, held by Kasparov. Karpov and Kasparov had successfully defended their titles at the FIDE World Chess Championship 1996 and PCA World Chess Championship 1995 respectively. From 1948 until 1996, World Chess Championships had followed a similar pattern: a series of qualifying tournaments and matches were held over more than a year, culminating in the Candidates Tournament. The winner of the Candidates tournament was the official challenger for the world title, and would play the incumbent champion in a match for world championship. (The 1996 cycle was an exception. The incumbent world champion participated in the Candidates tournament as a seeded semi-finalist.) In 1997, FIDE president Kirsan Ilyumzhinov proposed a completely new structure: a knockout tournament, consisting of 2 game matches (slightly longer in the final rounds), with match tie-breakers using rapid chess and blitz chess if necessary. This format had been done before in tournaments, but never at the world championship level. In addition to the new format, it was proposed by Ilyumzhinov as a way to unify the two rival world titles. To do this, FIDE champion Anatoly Karpov and PCA champion Garry Kasparov were each to be seeded into the semi-finals. Kasparov did not want to defend his title under these circumstances, and declined his inviatation. The format was then modified to have FIDE champion Karpov seeded directly into the final. Controversies The advantages of the new format were:   It avoided a long cycle, and was all over in a month or so. This is could all be done in the one venue, it would not have    the scheduling problems which had beset some previous world championship cycles. Each round could be played in    3 days (one day for each normal time control game, and one for the tie breaks).   More players (up to 128) could be included.   There were no special privileges for the incumbent champion or seeded players (although some were preserved     in the earlier championships, these were completely eliminated later on). Opponents pointed out disadvantages of the format:   Short matches (only 2 games in the earlier rounds) left too much to chance - the stronger player could blunder     a game, and it would be difficult to recover from a bad start. (Many world championship and Candidates matches     had been won by the player who recovered from an early loss).   The rapid playoffs were also seen to be left too much to chance: strength in rapid chess is not the same as strength     in chess with normal time controls.   These first two considerations, taken together, meant there was a very high chance that the best player     would not win, or even that a complete outsider might win, opponents argued.   Some people felt that the tradition of the champion being seeded into the final should be preserved, so that     a new champion can only be champion by defeating the old champion. Prominent non-participants   Kasparov did not want to defend his title under these circumstances, and declined his inviatation.   Vladimir Kramnik declined to play, in protest against Karpov being seeded into the final.
