Euro Club Cup 1: Carlsen and Anand take rating hits

Magnus Carlsen and Vishy Anand both dropped 3.4 rating points, with Vishy falling out of the Top 10, as they were held to draws by lower-rated opposition on Day 1 of the European Club Cup in Mayrhofen, Austria. Their teams cruised to 5.5:0.5 wins, however, and despite scares for players such as Arjun Erigaisi the top teams all scored crushing wins. It was closer in the women’s event, where Elisabeth Paehtz gave top seeds Cercle d’Echecs de Monte-Carlo a narrow win.
