I learned something early in life - Don't expect anything from anyone; Not your friend, family, co-worker etc.

Trust them to be humans. To betray, disappoint, hurt. It's what humans do. We are messed up, imperfect. Sometimes we are not even trying to be.

Always proud of you and solidly behind you.

@anishgiri , please we need a GM Trainer for this brilliant mind 🙏🏾

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

I agree, i was opportuned to have some conversations with some great trainers during the tournament, hopefully we get a good deal and sign up soon, while sourcing the funding aspect

[Obong Colin NOT Collins @ColinUdoh]

The most important statement in this whole post is this "Next, a high-rated GM trainer."
He needs that to get to that next level.
Without that, all this experience will go to waste.
Congratulations to him for what was a good showing despite all that. Proud of him

The @FIDE_chess Grand Swiss 2025 is over, and it has shaped @TennysonOlisa in ways words can barely capture. I saw him prepare for every single game with heart and resilience. One day, he almost gave up; but we stood by him, and he kept fighting.

This experience has given him priceless exposure on the world stage, most especially playing the top players in the world . It feels like the true beginning of his journey. Next, a high-rated GM trainer.

Tennyson is a fighter, and we couldn’t be prouder. ♟️

Tennyson’s Grand Swiss journey isn’t about the scorecard , it’s about courage.
Against some of the world’s best and toughest players, he’s lost 8 and drawn 1, but every game has been a masterclass in resilience and growth.

One thing is clear: to unlock his full potential, he needs the guidance of a world-class Grandmaster trainer.

This is only the beginning of his GM dream.

@mukixsa Have you seen the ratings of all the players Tennyson has been playing compared to his. If you are so good in chess, i doubt you can play up to 5mins with those GMs. Support your , when he makes a come back don't come and praise him though.

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

@TennysonOlisa playing the top super Grand masters in the world for the last 6 days here in Uzbekistan, after the break yesterday, he's in good spirit and ready... Proud big brother moments 💪🏽🙏🏽

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

💪🏽

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

@OgahAboje @TennysonOlisa @Tunde_OD Facts 👏. The stats don’t always show the fight on the board. Competing at the Grand Swiss against world-class GMs is already a huge achievement. Every game is a learning curve ; proud of the representation 💪♟️🔥

Asl, no Nigerian competitive chess player has done this...

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

@OyeyemiFawole you didn't have to go to Facebook to raise the Fact i talked about Tennyson, most of the super GMs i have met here in Uzbekistan all have coaches, you think all Nigerians must suffer before they blow?... That's a sad mentality. Address my tweet here not Facebook

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

@TennysonOlisa is fueled by pure passion and relentless discipline.

Now imagine what he could achieve with a Grandmaster coach after this prestigious event, the journey to becoming Nigeria’s first Chess Grandmaster.

This experience is truly priceless. it’s a chance to invest in history.

[Anthony Olisa @ToniVenture_]

Fun fact: @TennysonOlisa is self-trained and puts in countless hours daily on the board.

Right now, he’s up against the Top 200 chess players in the world, every single one of his 11 opponents at #FIDEGrandSwiss is a Grandmaster.
