Kramnik World Chess Champion 2006
Made by .schtieF
Congratulations to Vladimir Kramnik (Russia), for being the one and only worldchampion of chess. In an exciting match over 12 games and a tiebreak he won against Veselin Topalov from Bulgaria. Vladimir, you are my hero for playing deep combinatorical and almost fault free chess. Btw. After the Bathroomgate, you are the only one who deserved this victory. You rescued World Chess and brought it back to life, leaving behind the agony of 13 years.
