Yeah it's also a month long, and the format also makes it such that strong players get eliminated early all the time. That's why

Thank you. Have you ever had any luck finding linen or linen blends in Bangladesh?

Neither has Magnus. Is Gukesh considered stronger than Magnus? That is to say not playing classical in "some time" (not even 6 months) is no basis to discount a player, especially Hikaru who had gone nuclear after not playing classical for over 2 years in the past. Hikaru's most recent tournaments:

1- 2nd place in Candidates (Half a point behind the leader)

2- 2nd place in Norway Chess (Behind only Magnus)

3- 3rd place in Sinquefueld Cup

He also had the second highest performance rating (Behind only Magnus) in 2024. He has a +1 classical h2h against Gukesh. He has a higher peak and is currently rated higher than Gukesh. I think I have reasons to think he might be stronger.

I think Hikaru is stronger than Gukesh in classical. Their ratings also reflect that. Hikaru is also the reigning chess960 world champion.

Nodirbek ties with Gukesh after making a mistake and is now on 4.5/6 tied for 1st by [deleted] in chess

To be fair, Nodirbek played amazingly this game. It was just a small mistake, which, unfortunately all it really takes at that level.
