| | Anatoly Karpov |
| | Impressed by the strength of the tournament, Kasparov had said several days before the tournament that the winner could rightfully be called the world champion of tournaments. | | | However, Karpov decisively proved wrong the naysayers in one incredible performance against the world's strongest players (including Kasparov, Anand, Shirov, Kramnik, Judit Polgar, Kamsky, Gelfand, Bareev, Topalov, Lautier, and Ivanchuk, among others) in the super-strong tournament Linares 1994 (average Elo rating 2685, the highest in history). | | | Though he quickly recovered, many said that Karpov had lost his edge, and that his playing level had declined. |
