“Normally, the world championship is very successful at finding and celebrating the best player in the world. It’s still got a lot of prestige, but this year it’s a bit of a strange one.”In some ways, this should be the biggest world championship yet. Howell noted that it’s not particularly rare for the world chess championship to be without the game’s top player. “There have been several cases of a player being world champion, but maybe not being the strongest on paper. The FIDE World Chess Championship is presented by Google, with online coverage and commentary provided by FIDE and Chess.com.

CNN —Magnus Carlsen defeated Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa in a tiebreak to become Chess World Cup champion on Thursday. The Norwegian grandmaster has now won every major individual classical chess tournament and, as Chess.com puts it, “completes chess” with his victory in Baku, Azerbaijan. In said tiebreak – which took the format of a two-game rapid match – Carlsen showed why he is the reigning World Rapid Champion and world No. For Pragg, the World Cup was somewhat of a breakthrough onto the top table of the sport. Ding’s victory ended the reign of five-time champion Carlsen, who had decided not to defend his title earlier this year.

The internet was soon awash with theories about how Niemann might have secreted a radio device on his body. In a postgame interview at the Cup, Niemann offered to play naked, in a radio signal-proofed room, to prove he was playing clean. He also said emphatically that he had never cheated during an over-the-board game, as in-person chess is known. Many in the chess world did not believe him. Viswanathan Anand, a five-time world champion, put it this way: “I thought Carlsen literally cracked at the end.”

Magnus Carlsen had mere seconds left on the clock of the final game he would play as World Chess Champion. He was near the end of the tie-breaking game in a format so dramatic it’s called Armageddon. Then he made a technological chess blunder for the ages.

World champion Magnus Carlsen has set the chess world on fire in recent weeks while barely saying a word. First, he abruptly quit a prestigious tournament in St. Louis after a defeat in early September. Then this week, he resigned from a game after making just one move. What both staggering incidents have in common was Carlsen’s opponent, a 19-year-old American grandmaster named Hans Moke Niemann.

Magnus Carlsen resigned after making just one move against an opponent at the center of an alleged cheating controversy. When American grandmaster Hans Moke Niemann began with two conventional pawn moves against world champion Magnus Carlsen in an online event on Monday, the top-ranked Norwegian responded with a stunning counter, one that isn’t in any chess book. Carlsen’s move was the latest explosion in a scandal that has rocked professional chess this month. Carlsen recently withdrew from an in-person event after losing to Niemann, with his only public comments coming in the form of a cryptic video of a European soccer manager. The chess world was quick to understand the implications of his unprecedented decision: Niemann faced widespread speculation that he is a cheater.
