Chrilly Donninger said they had chosen Adams because the match will take place
in London. Obviously the location was chosen prior to the opponent. Adams agreed
very  quickly so PALgroup stopped to search for alternatives. Anyway the match
against Adams is only the beginning of a series of matches against the Top10. If
enough money is involved we'll see a match against Anand or Leko sooner o later.
