'We followed the rules, Carlsen didn't': FIDE deputy prez Anand
Magnus Carlsen withdrew from the World Rapid and Blitz Championships for not complying with FIDE's dress code, which prohibits jeans. Despite being fined and given options, he refused to change on principle. Chief Arbiter enforced the rules, leading to his disqualification from the ninth round. FIDE clarified it was a procedural decision.
