1 Magnus Carlsen says he will play at the World Blitz Championship after initially quitting the chess tournament due to a dress code dispute with organizers. On Friday, Carlsen walked away from the World Rapid Chess Championship after refusing to change out of his jeans, which the International Chess Federation (FIDE) said breached the tournament’s dress code. As a result, Carlsen quit and said he would not return for the Blitz competition which starts on Monday in New York. Carlsen, though, insisted he would continue wearing jeans. Oh, I am definitely playing in jeans tomorrow — Magnus Carlsen (@MagnusCarlsen) December 29, 2024The 34-year-old, who has won five world rapid and seven world blitz titles in the last 10 years, was fined $200 for wearing jeans during the rapid tournament on Friday and was asked to change by the Chief Arbiter.

1 Magnus Carlsen quit the World Rapid Chess Championship on Friday after he refused to change out of the jeans he was wearing, according to the International Chess Federation (FIDE). Carlsen, who has won five world rapid and seven world blitz titles in the last 10 years, also withdrew from the World Blitz Championship which follows the tournament. But they said you have to change now.”Relations between Carlsen, chess’ most famous player, and FIDE, the sport’s governing body, have been growing more strained recently. “The only thing we insisted on – no Series or Tour can be called World Championship unless FIDE approves it. FIDE is the governing body of chess, and any World Championship should either be conducted or approved by FIDE.”
