Wishing a HUGE congratulations to Levon Aronian, our Las Vegas Grand Slam Winner! He did not just win, he made a statement. Defeating Magnus, Hikaru, Arjun, and Hans in a single run is the stuff of legend, and Levon brought it to life!!! 🏆🥇
Nepo wins today's Freestyle Friday going 9 for 11 to capture first place!! Stellar performance as always 🤩
Take a selfie with the champion - completed!😂 It was nice to see @LevAronian 's success in Vegas. Amazing performance! Guess how many years passed between the two pictures?😉 #ChessConnectsUs #topplayer #chess
Hans Niemann stormed into second place and proved once again that he belongs at the very top. He’s not just knocking on the door of greatness, he’s kicking it down with impeccable spirit and showmanship!! His Freestyle era is only beginning, and the world better be ready!! 🔥
Congrats to Levon, despite the loss I’m very happy with my play. Had my chances but unfortunately didn’t capitalize. Great learning experience, looking forward to future Freestyle tournaments!
Both podium matches are looking very decisive!! Will Levon and Magnus finish strong or will we get tiebreaks???
Blunders on both sides in the final minutes of this Levon vs. Hans game! Hans misses a complicated winning sequence and the game is drawn! Can you find the only winning move?
Our YouTube spectators are almost perfectly split! With around 9,000 votes, 53 percent are rooting for Levon Aronian and 47 percent for Hans Niemann. I'm curious what you all think here? Who are you rooting for in our Finals?
What better way to celebrate International Chess Day than watching @HansMokeNiemann battle @LevAronian for 1st place in our Las Vegas Grand Finale? Oh, and if that’s not enough, some guys named @MagnusCarlsen and @GMHikaru are going head-to-head once more for 3rd place. 🔥🎆♟️
One day?
"I want to see chess in a stadium. Why not bring 50,000 people to a stadium? There are 50,000 watching online." —Interview with @AnnaCramling
It's @GMHikaru and @MagnusCarlsen who will battle for 3rd place in Las Vegas after a thrilling #FreestyleChess Day 4! chess.com/news/view/free…
WHAT A LINEUP FOR TOMORROW!!! You're telling me we get Hans vs Levon for the 1st place match AND el clasico for our 3rd place match??? WHAT A TREAT! What are your predictions for tomorrow?!
Four of the world’s top five players are fighting for a spot in the 3rd place match! Magnus takes game one against Arjun, while Fabi misses a massive -5 advantage and draws with Hikaru!! Will we see tiebreaks? Who do you predict makes it to the 3rd place match?
Levon’s arc from Hans’ hero this tournament to his final opponent is absolute cinema
Who would have predicted Levon vs Hans in the finals!?(other than Levon and Hans themselves, maybe!) Amazing run from both players so far 🔥 #FreestyleChess
First Magnus, then Hikaru, now Arjun. LEVON BLAZES HIS WAY INTO THE FINALS WITH UNSTOPPABLE FORCE!!!
