If you've been watching the
2016 Candidates Tournament
on Agon's official site,
Worldchess.com,
then you've undoubtedly seen the cartoons with the short bios for the eight players.
A few weeks ago I featured one of them in GM Svidler's Headwear. Now here are excerpts from the cartoon for GM Karjakin, The Winner and New Challenger (for the World Championship).
The drawing on the bottom could be captioned 'Last Man Standing', which pretty much sums up the dog-eat-dog atmosphere surrounding the Candidates event, where only one player gets the big prize.
