Timeline
He was rated 44th in the world at the time, while "Classical" World Champion Garry Kasparov was rated No. 1. Khalifman said after the tournament, "Rating systems work perfectly for players who play only in round robin closed events. I think most of them are overrated. Organizers invite same people over and over because they have the same rating and their rating stays high."
Khalifman played in the Linares chess tournament next year, and performed credibly (though placing below joint winner Kasparov).
