Getting your player ready...
MADRID — Garry Kasparov beat Anatoly Karpov in two games Tuesday at the start of an exhibition chess match marking the 25th anniversary of their first title bout, a grueling event that was eventually ended after five months.
The two grandmasters resumed their legendary rivalry in two semi-rapid games, in which each player starts with 25 minutes on the clock and has five seconds added after each move.
In both games, Karpov, 58, struggled to manage his time and the clock ran out on him.
