I withdrew from the World Rapid today after developing some aggressive flu-like symptoms overnight 😞
I’ll see how I’m feeling in 48 hours before I make a decision on the blitz. Very frustrating

Danya is an excellent choice by the NYT.
For Daniel Naroditsky, The Times’s new chess columnist, a career in the royal game may not be as lucrative as one at a hedge fund — but he is exactly where he wants to be.

maintain my opinion that charity streams should have more disclosure. I'll try not to stir shit up at 4 am and stick to tweeting about the games 😬

I loved Kobe, man. My favorite athlete and my idol growing up. I got into basketball solely because of him and my favorite thing to watch on TV was late night Laker home games.
His competitiveness and drive was infectious. It inspired me a lot in my own chess career...RIP Kobe😞

For context, we did a couple of paid fundraisers 3 years ago and made a decision to completely stop. Regardless of your moral stance, I think minimum disclosure is fair. I don’t have an issue donating to a charity if they disclose to me that the fundraiser profits *xx percent*

a win for Hikaru today would balance out his loss against Caruana with black which was his toughest pairing of the entire event.
and I think he’ll have some opportunities against the three first-time candidates Rapport, Duda, and Firouzja.

Don’t know all the details but first impression: very poor PR/marketing in chess as usual.
Why pick a beautiful, central venue like Madrid if you’re not going to follow it up with proper publicity?
The decision to let 7 out of 8 Candidates players "rest" and not show up at the press conference before the tournament was, to put it mildly, very strange.
