Chess: Hans Niemann playing in London this week amid new controversy
"There were sceptics. Ivan Sokolov, a former Yugoslav and Netherlands champion, who coached the young Uzbek team to gold at the 2022 Chennai Olympiad, took to X after his defeat and posted: “It is hard to fight 98 accuracy. There are (apart from delay) no anti-cheating measures. Not even a scan.”"
Hans Niemann faces new unsubstantiated cheating claims after winning Tournament of Peace with near-flawless run
Polgar’s tweet quoted the organiser as telling the Norwegian newspaper: “We have no concrete evidence that he is cheating. We have some indications, but we don’t know if anyone will report him.”
Soon after his comments, Niemann’s attorney, Terrence Oved of Oved & Oved LLP, issued a statement to Forbes Betting stating: “Despite the overwhelming proof of Hans’ extraordinary talents, there will always be haters. Our advice to them is simple: Get used to it. Hans is just getting started.”
