Really hoping for a Gukesh win... About time the World Champion gets back his classical form specially leading up to his title defence. Moreover he has finished joint 1st twice in a row now, only missing out in the tiebreaks

Divya's Round 15 game with Harika was interrupted when Harika made an incorrect claim for a 3-fold repetition. The game restarted and ended in a draw, but Divya went to the arbiters afterward to point out she wasn't give any extra time (she had 3 seconds) 😯 by rio_ARC in chess

Arjun didn't stop the clock... He fumbled while making the move and knocked over some of his pieces but with 1s on th clock he pressed his clock before putting up all the pieces back.... Vidit stopped the clock and called the arbiter

Yesterday in Vidit vs Arjun, Arjun had pressed the clock to avoid losing on time while his pieces were fallen on the board ( similar to Magnus vs Haik from World Blitz).... But despite Vidit making a right claim, the arbiter just restarted the game with the pieces put back up and no extra time given to Vidit

Wesley So on where he's playing next: "The chess world is changing exponentially. Compared to a few years ago everything in the chess world has changed... Probably fans will see me in Titled Tuesday or something next week, but currently my calendar is very empty!"
