Attacking Chess

Imagine beating Magnus Carlsen at 19, then waking up to the entire world accusing you of cheating, fueled by vibes and memes. Years later, you prove yourself again and again. Still no apology. Maybe it’s time the chess world asked Magnus & Hikaru to say sorry to Hans Niemann.

Hans Niemann: "I'd view being Freestyle World Champion as harder than classical world champion. It’s a broken system" Even Magnus Carlsen might agree. And Gukesh won't.

Man United's new signing Bryan Mbeumo is a chess enthusiast. "I played a little bit when I was younger. Two or three years ago, I started playing again and I really enjoyed it. I play online. I have a board at home but I have nobody to play with." Chess is everywhere.

It’s China vs India in the semifinals of the 2025 Women’s World Cup. Lei Tingjie vs Koneru Humpy Tan Zhongyi vs Divya Deshmukh Asian power!!

It’s official: India will host the FIDE World Cup 2025! 🇮🇳♟️ From Oct 30 to Nov 27, 2026 of the world’s best players will battle it out in a knockout showdown for glory and spots in the 2026 Candidates.

"Magnus played almost a perfect game. I simply got outplayed. I misunderstood the concept of a knight in front of a center pawn, so when your opponent is that precise, you can’t be too upset", Hikaru Nakamura said after losing to Magnus in Freestyle Chess Grand Slam, in Las Vegas

“In Fabiano I trust". Hikaru Nakamura revealed that he followed Fabiano Caruana's line in a parallel game because he trusts Fabiano’s opening prep in chess 960. However, Hikaru still lost to Magnus.
