Who wins World Chess Championship title 2018?

C. Fabiano Caruana
D. Viswanathan Anand
Answer: A
Explanation: Magnus Carlsen convincingly retained his world chess champion title by beating Fabiano Caruana 3-0 in the rapid match at today's tiebreak in London. Carlsen's first reaction after winning today's tiebreak emphasized what had been critical for his victory: having a good day when everything is decided on just one afternoon. Caruana, who had played such great chess—definitely not worse than his opponent in the classical portion—couldn't say the same. Carlsen, who has won the championship three times before and was the favourite to win the game, took a two-match lead and needed only a draw in the third tie-breaker to seal his victory.
