Published Fri, Jan 29 10 06:55 PM

Wijk Aan Zee, Jan. 28 -- World champion Viswanathan Anand ended his long chain of draws with a lucky victory over Spaniard Alexei Shirov in the tenth round of the 'A' group of the Corus chess tournament here. Having drawn the first nine games, Anand tried hard to be back on his winning ways but missed a simple tactic which might have seen him on the receiving end. However, Shirov missed the opportunity at the fag end of the first time control and landed in a lost position which the Indian ace converted without much ado.
