STROLLING across the sands of Besant Nagar beach in Madras, a short walk away from thehouse where he lives with his parents, Vishwanathan Anand is in areflective mood. It isbarely two months since he fought and lost the good fight against Grand Master GaryKasparov in the finals of the Professional Chess Association (PCA) world championship inNew York. And as he looks back on that momentous event, the local lad has about him theair of someone who tried his best shot, but fell short of the final mark. For the timebeing. However, if there was any trauma involved, it was obviously left behind in the BigApple.
