(Reuters) - Norway's Magnus Carlsen, dubbed the "Justin Bieber of chess", won the Chess World Championship on Friday, playing a patient game and driving defending champion Viswanathan Anand of India to make self-destructive mistakes. Carlsen, 22, whose boyish good looks have earned him lucrative sponsorships, a modeling contract and coverage on tabloid front pages showing him poolside, defeated Anand in ten games in Chennai, India, scoring three victories and seven draws. The championship matches, which started on November 9, have driven the country's top sport of cross-country skiing from the front pages, and a poll by tabloid VG put Carlsen almost on par with Olympic champion skiers Petter Northug and Marit Bjoergen as Norway's top athletes. Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg, tweeted on #verdensbestecarlsen, meaning Carlsen, the world's best: "One of Norway's greatest sports performances through all-time is a fact, congratulations Magnus Carlsen!" Carlsen played four draws early in the tournament, wearing down Anand who never recovered from blunders in the fifth game.
