I asked Magnus Carlsen about the Chess GOAT. He wasn’t having it. 😂

@hellokostya @Riostradamus Who’s they?

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

One of my biggest flexes is that I'm followed on Twitter by the Chess World Champion AND the World Champion Challenger. 👑😎

I have great respect for both, especially because of how they carry themselves as people. They are great ambassadors to the game. ❤️♟️

Airport security escorting Sindarov & his trophy through the airport. (And staring into my soul).

@Doctor12237 @GMJSindarov Not from the candidates, but I’m sure they will surface within a few days.

@MiroIsmatov @GMJSindarov True, it is really only the beginning! 😎

At Norway Chess I asked Vaishali’s mother if she would like to play a game of chess on the big board.

She kindly said no. 🤣

[The Khel India @TheKhelIndia]

THE HAPPIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD NOW!

Nagalakshmi Ji, Mother of Vaishali ❤️🥹

@HeatblastRises This.

Reply with something you want to ask or tell Sindarov.

I’ll pick the top few to show him tomorrow, and record his reaction.

[Javokhir Sindarov @GMJSindarov]

@IndieChess 😁

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

Some great questions so far but many of them have been covered in interviews/press conferences already. Give me something spicy. 🌶️

@IMJulioDiaz 11 years after becoming FM. Congrats and respect for your dedication.

@Kasparov63 That’s why I’m learning and using AI, and applying it in chess. ♟️

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

@Ghassanareyli @GMAlexColovic Agreed.

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

Javokhir & Bibisara would beat Magnus & Ella Carlsen in bughouse. No question. ♟️

[Charlize @Charlizevanzyl]

Talk about a chess power couple, right? 🥺

BTW, Chessbase India puts out so much high quality content. They're first to everything. They meant very well with the question. It was funny. Sindarov laughed as he answered it.

They also interviewed Sindarov as a young boy, way before his success.

*Sindarov wins Candidates*

ChessBase India: Do you want to cry?

Javokhir: No.

😂

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

@LuciferAttorney @GMAlexColovic Nepo/Giri/Fabi all have the energy and ability to play. I wouldn’t count any of them out. Just based on the U30 idea, this list came to mind. I’m unattached to the prediction.

[Indie Chess @IndieChess]

Bibisara has a chance to do something WILD tomorrow. 🫨

Imagine the power couple status that comes with BOTH players playing the World Championship match.

That’s a Netflix documentary & rom-com the chess world would eat up. 🤩

[Áz @absurdistoic]

Mr. and Mrs. Candidates CHAMPION 🥰🤌🏻

@logan_000711 Not at all. I love the work they do and have several positive experiences with Sagar & Amruta. Just thought it was a funny little moment.
