Who would get 3000 rating first in chess?

I wonder, can someone ever get 3000 (Classical) rating in chess?

If they can, who would it be/when would it be?

Share your thoughts.

I would say Carlsen in a couple of years if he were still single. But, now... either Wei, Gukesh, or Fabi.

I don't think we will see a 3000 rated player yet.

I feel like in 20-30 years, we might have one.

But if we are talking about today's players, Gukesh has the most potential to me.

At Magnus's peak, he was only 200 away from 3,000. I think it's pretty realistic to have someone else reach that rating in around 5 years. Maybe 10. If not the current generation, then I put my stakes on Fausti and Abhi.

Yeah. Gukesh might, but I think next gen will.

If that's true, we'll find out in the next decade ngl.

Don't forget about Wei! He hasn't made headlines as much, but, he is definitely up and coming. I think he's the biggest underdog so far! It'll be interesting to see where he ends up...

Same in my opinion I'd say the same thing too

Wait wha- even I unfollowed this thread lol.

Well, this was a throwback. I just saw this because I saw that you commented on this, Toast! 😄

So... let's revive this thread?
