The US doesnt have any good looking chessplayers, Ukraine has a lot of them, heck, Iran also has some.

I think Trump is just jealous.

Seriously, all these names sound exactly the same when I pronounce them. Wesley So is a welcome change. 

I can understand your confusion. Not only are their names similar, but all three are also among the greatest chess players of all time. And to make matters worse, they also happen to look very similar.

 

 

 

Seriously, how are you supposed to tell which is which?

Too hard to post 4k photos? geeeezezez

I'm not sure I understand you... are you saying I should have posted 4000 photos?

Karpov was the Justin Bieber of Chess.

Actually, I'd pin Caruana more as the Justin Bieber type. I mean, he just LOOKS like a tool. Great player, but total tool

Justin Bieber is not a tool! He's a handsome guy who makes great music!

Well... at least he did at one time. I'm not a huge fan of his earliest work or his work now, but Believe and Journals were amazing!

So looks like a Isla de Pascua statue and Nakamura looks like a weird fat redneck addicted to videogames with Japanese face.
