The Wall Street Journal has an article today that says Magnus Carlsen will not defend his world chess championship title.
NY times reporting same thing.
Personally I think the current 2 year world championship cycle is too short. The WC is always preparing for a match (if nothing else not tipping his hand on preparation).
I think a 3 year cycle would be better.
