@EndgameaiChess Where do you be getting all these quotes, btw?

@FIDE_chess This still makes no sense. Magnus’s performance rating is 2749. Arjun on board 1 had a higher blitz performance.

@anishgiri People also said Gukesh was gonna steamroll Ding. Does this imply that once you become World Champion, you will be steamrolled by the next challenger? I wonder who is gonna steamroll Sindarov

Huge congratulations to Carissa Yip on qualifying for the FIDE Women’s Grand Prix 2026–2027! 🎉♟️

Earning her spot via the rating list - and becoming the first American to do so - is a remarkable achievement. The Grand Prix is one of the key parts of the Women’s World Championship cycle, offering a direct path to the Candidates Tournament.

We’re proud of you and cheering you on at the Saint Louis Chess Club! 🇺🇸

@chess24com Awesome work, Nihal!

@Gyan49485 I think Alireza gained rating at the GS, even though there was a chance for him to bleed rating as you say. Both he and Wesley have won the last two Sinquefield Cups where you play the best of the best. I don’t see how they are overrated

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@Gyan49485 That’s sad. But I don’t think pairing him on the same level of inactivity as Lenier and Duda is fair

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@chess24com Hopefully Anna has been training in some way

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@AIsaac96 @Gyan49485 Fabi has played mostly closed tournaments too. Didn’t play the grand Swiss or World Cup. He did play US masters though. Where do you think most of Fabi’s rating come from?

@atwell_rose @CLTchesscenter Congratulations!

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@AjedrezdPrimera How can that be? Does he only play chess all day everyday? No school or anything?

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@HansMokeNiemann Do you mean when we all reach the pearly gates?

[Bianca Crenshaw, MLIS @bianca_corrine]

@chess24com @2700chess Wesley is Fabi’s biggest fan

@tberq_ @GMHikaru How do you think freedom is won? Everyone throughout history had to fight for it.

@Bilallaturca_ @AlirezaFirouzja Watch the interview Reza did on 60 Minutes. Democracy is the goal.

@OldCdnGuy @AlirezaFirouzja @Kasparov63 Not going back. Moving forward.
