Magnus graciously acknowledged this game as his best he played at Norway 2024 and also speaks volume when he recognized Pragg is truly a very strong opponent to beat

Magnus Carlsen once again reminded the world why he is the GOAT. Even after a subpar start by his standards, he won everything on demand to win the Tepe Sigeman Chess Tournament 2026! Magnus entered the final round a half point down from Arjun Erigaisi. He played an amazing game to defeat Yagiz Kaan Erdogmus - a long battle which lasted more than 5 hours. He did the job, and Arjun drew his game against Andy Woodward - this meant that Magnus had to play tiebreaks against Arjun in 30 minutes! Magnus started in style with a clean win against Arjun in the 1st Blitz game. Arjun struck back in the 2nd Blitz game - it was now time for Sudden death! Magnus won the Sudden death game with the Black pieces to win the tournament - here you see his expression and sigh of relief after he became the Champion. What an absolutely amazing guy Magnus Carlsen is. When he's down, when he's tested, he always finds a way to rise up to the occasion!

On D Gukesh and Arjun Erigaisi, he says, "They are all very good, but they still need a little bit of time to prepare. We also have a tournament running simultaneously in Armenia, where Pragg (R Praggnanandhaa) and Aravindh Chithambaram showed very good chess...

Norwegian chess grandmaster and world leader Magnus Carlsen has publicly called for Russia and Belarus to remain banned from international chess competitions. He made this statement during a ceremony where he was awarded the title of the greatest chess player in history. Carlsen remarked: “I believe Kasparov had a better career than me. I understand why I received this award, but he deserves it more. In honor of Garry, I will say this: he would advise against reinstating the Russian and Belarusian chess federations. And I stand by that.” Earlier, Babur Tolbaev, president of the Kyrgyzstan Chess Federation, suggested allowing teams from Russia and Belarus back into competitions. However, Carlsen firmly opposed this, supporting the sanctions and insisting that occupiers remain isolated.

🎉 Happy 36th birthday to Ian Nepomniachtchi! 🎂♟ With a career-high rating of 2795 and a peak world ranking of No. 2, Ian became only the second player to win the FIDE Candidates Tournament in consecutive editions (2021 and 2022). He also shared the 2024 FIDE World Blitz Championship title with Magnus Carlsen. The game featured here comes from that dramatic World Blitz Championship final. Nepo won the game against Carlsen to level the match score and keep the title match alive, forcing the contest into additional tie-breaks before it was ultimately agreed that the world title would be shared. Wishing Ian a fantastic birthday and a year filled with happiness, success, and many more memorable games! 🎉♟
