NEW DELHI: World No. 1 Viswanathan Anand capitalised on a late blunder by German hope Arkadij Naiditsch to win the fourth round of the Sparkassen Chess Meeting 2007 in Dortmund, Germany, on Wednesday. Naiditsch, who looked like sharing the point with Anand, blundered a bishop and resigned after 57 moves. The result broke Anand’s sequence of three draws and raised his tally to 2.5 points. He now shares the second spot with Russia’s Evgeny Alekseev. World champion Vladimir Kramnik was the other winner of the day. He defeated Norway’s wonder-kid Magnus Carlsen to stay in front at three points. The results (fourth round): Viswanathan Anand (2.5) bt Arkadij Naiditsch (Ger, 1); Vladimir Kramnik (Rus, 3) bt Magnus Carlsen (Nor, 1.5); Evgeny Alekseev (Rus, 2.5) drew with Peter Leko (Hun, 2); Boris Gelfand (Esp, 1.5) drew with Sha khriyar Mamedyarov (Aze, 2). Fifth-round pairings: Mamedyarov-Anand; Carlsen-Gelfand; Leko-Kramnik; Naiditsch-Alekseev.
