– I feel I'm getting better year by year.
Your win against Magnus Carlsen in Norway Chess made headlines in the world of chess. How were your feelings immediately after the game? And now some weeks afterwards. What does the victory against Carlsen mean to you?
– It's always fun to beat the world champion, and it was especially exciting to get to do it at home ground.
Rilton is a long and grueling tournament. Do you get some assistance between rounds? By Carlsen maybe?
– I get along fine on my own, but the training sessions with Team Carlsen before the two World Cup matches have helped me of course.
Finally, what do you think it is that makes you so successful in Rilton Cup?
– There is no guarantee of success, but of course it helps to feel comfortable in a particular place with good memories from previous years.
