Czech Team Refuses To Start Clocks As Indian Team Arrives Late | True Sportsmanship | 45th Olympiad

True Sportsmanship In Chess. Due to conveyance issues, the Indian women team arrived late. After some of the team members arrived and the arbiter asked to start the clocks, the Czech Republic players decided not to start the clocks and wait for their opponents. Such moments make the game of chess beautiful. Kudos to the team.

Respect to Vantika's opponent 📈📈 That game really went down the wire and Vantika was truly down on time. Some moves were played by Vantika even when there were less than 10 secs on clock. Czech team may have lost the round but gained respect 🫡

[@jamesrawlins735]

According to Anna Cramling the busses were all screwed up and so many teams arrived late - the US ended up taking the Metro.

Good sportsmanship or shall i say - sportswomanship! ❤

[@profgnome7938]

Lol I didn’t see the sportsmanship bit in the title, and so I thought it was gonna be a situation where the whole Czech team were black and refused to start white’s clock as a form of protest, as if to say “if you’re gonna be so late you can start your own clock”

Firstly blame the indians for coming late…later appreciate sportsmanship of foreigners which they come by birth

[@fortyofforty5257]

Classy move by the Czech players. And a redheaded e4 player. Nice.

[@Nondualstandpoint01]

Great sportsmanship! Respectful behaviour is always a great example. And the true joy and essence of a sport, is the very game itself, as it takes place, it’s not about winning, really!

[@mariorichiececilio8239]

a great sportmanship

People don't want to win on a technicality, they want to earn their wins on the board. That's the spirit of fair play ❤

Its just chess. Wait till they get sponsored and stuff. They’ll be doing steroids immediately.

[@squarecutatul6834]

Language of headline is misleading. Czech players showed sportsmanship but the headline is as if they were acting in an unsportsmanlike manner. Please correct the headline.

[@anilkumarsrivastava7080]

Game starts at 3 PM Budapest time., please note. Moreover, the delay was due to conveyance issues which was not Indian team's fault. USA team, in fact, had to take a metro to come to the venue as there were no buses available at that time.

[@FrankJamger]

Good sportsmanship indeed by the Czechs, but it looks like the Indian players let their clocks run a while before starting to play _anyway_ (as do the Indian men), so I have to wonder if being late and letting the clocks run is a deliberate 'mind games' strategy.

[@NaveenKedilaya]

They give themselves time to get settled in. They would've taken some time to calm themselves a bit before making any moves.

I hope India don’t end up losing - they will have no excuse at all.

I guess the Czech team woman wanted to start the clock only when the opponent was on the table, the opponent was not there on the table why dont indians value time?

[@chessvlog]

This is not Indian team fault.... buses carries players from their hotel which are provided by the organiser team ......so if buses are late then that was not players fault...... please correct your information

[@madamcuriouss]

Where's the sportsmanship in Indian team? Strolling in when your opponent waited to start the clock

[@taru318]

[@MrDevil510]

What was indian team doing

[@winstonchieng367]

Plenty of excuses given but it is not the organisation, transport, drivers,vehicles, traffic or others there who should make sure you get to the hall in time to sit down to play. Always go out way earlier to arrive early before you become late. Just wise up on time.

[@songoku-jx3cb]

I honestly feel not starting clocks is against the sportsmanship . You are promoting for players to arrive late .magnus has already made it into something cool which its not .
