Really bizarre.
What I find most absurd it the story about his interview with young Carlsen and the lengthy explanation why he lost the game. Is there any other sport where a journalist feels entitled to challenge the person being interviewed, eventually coming up with pathetic excuses for the inevitable loss? I'd like to see a journalist challenging Federer during an interview, then commenting: "I lost, but he tricked me because for the whole set I had the sun in my eyes".
