It's partly physical, you know.

On: Kasparov King No More

What no one seems to be mentioning here is that Chess at the championship level can be very physically demanding. Anyone who has tried to focus intensely on a problem for hours at a time would know that. Not only that, but any championship player isn't just thinking while at the board. He or she is also constantly practicing, memorizing lines of play, going over an opponent's history, etc. It's grueling.

Kramnik didn't just win because he is a better player; he won in part because he is a younger player. And because of that factor, it is doubtful that Kasparov will ever be regaining his championship.

I know it can get the job, but can it do the job?
