sorry, i just couldn't make it.
Clutch chess comedy
Even better
Where Gukesh admits:
"there are no better training partners than these three (Carlsen, Nakamura and Caruana). So the good thing is these three won’t be there in the World Cup."
When it's news that the WC actually wins a game in the world cup ...
But jokes aside, what a graceful human
And as expected, world champ eliminated from world cup in only round 3 game 2.

Boohoo

The banner reads
"Clutch Chess: Champions Showdown is a rapid event featuring the world's top-three players and World Champion Gukesh Dommaraju."
Happens only when your WC is not in the top three.
