@LordTommmy yeah it is over for Russia, after maybe 100 years of dominance.

They only have 1 great junior (Murzin Volodar) unlike the past times where they had 7-8 maybe 10 juniors like this.

From the kids, they also have 1 (Ivan Zemlyanskii)

Hans Niemann just PASSED Nepo in a live rating.

He is 3-4 Elo points behind chess legens like Anand, Mamedyarov, Aronian.

Crazy.

If he wins the Grand Swiss and makes it to the Candidates 2026, a Netflix movie about his life is coming 100000%

[Amanov Shamsaddin @AmanovShams]

@LordTommmy he is... a bit like a hobby now

Fabiano 2024 galibi. 2025-de büyük ihtimalle Pragg alıcak gibi görünüyor.

Apart from the great performances in 2025 FIDE Grand Swiss, we also witnessed bad ones.

Alexey Sarana just had probably THE WORST tournament of his life. Gained only 4 points, lost -30 Elo points.

Started the tournament as World No. 39,
Finished the tournament as World No. 62

NOTHING 😭😭😭😭😭 AND THAT'S MY PROBLEM

3 yaşından 83 yaşına kadar spor yaparak.

Macarlar su sporlarında neden bu kadar başarılı diye düşünürken yüzmeye gittiğimde 5 yaşlı macar çocuğun 50 metre olimpik havuzu 20 kere gidib geldiğini gördüm, ben 2 kere gidince ölüyordum. Aynı şeyi 45 yaşlı annesi de yapıyordu.

@ChessNumbers what happens if

Alireza Firouzja wins his game against Bleubaum (and the rest of the 2 games between Giri-Niemann; Erigaisi - Keymer ends in a draw)

how will be the top 5 in the grand fide swiss 2025? which 2 players will qualify for the candidates? @grok

[Amanov Shamsaddin @AmanovShams]

WOW. engine says 0.00, but don't be fooled.

Alireza Firouzja created a great ATTACKING chance against Matthias Bluebaum. The game will be amazing! He has a chance for the win + candidates. Let's see!
