Chess lovers were shocked when they learned the news that the legend of this sport, Russian Anatoly Karpov, ended up in a coma in the hospital after a mysterious incident.

The 71-year-old chess player, who is also a deputy of Vladimir Putin's party in the Russian Duma, has been confirmed to have a head injury, a fracture to be more precise, so he is admitted to the neurology department at the "Sklifosovski" hospital in Moscow.

Beyond the shock that this news has brought to one of the most popular figures of this sport, there is also the mystery about how this injury happened to Karpov. His daughter, Sofia, has stated that it was an incident at home, implying that he fell and suffered this head injury. Meanwhile, in "Telegram" in Russia, the news spread that he was sent unconscious to the hospital on Saturday, with an obvious head injury and under the effects of alcohol.

Official sources deny this possibility, but meanwhile, the head of the Movement of Russian Entrepreneurs, Andrei Kovalev, stated that his condition was critical. "We pray for his health, I hope the aggressor is caught," he said in statements that have been published in Russian media, adding even more to the mystery surrounding the situation that led to Karpov's condition.

Karpov was the world title holder from 1975 until 1985, winning more than 160 tournaments in his career and staying in the world's top 100 for 38 years.
