[@gibranlacandau9507]

That Carlsen hasn’t won this Cup is a BIG fact for the prestige of this event! The format makes it so brutal yet so irresistible for the chess fans👍🏻 I’m going for him😊

[@littleschnitzel8226]

Magnus has many more categories yet to win, apart from the World Cup also the 960 Championship or the Bullet Championship, not to mention his goal of achieving 2900 rating in classical.

[@juliocadavid6640]

He was close to all of them

[@littleschnitzel8226]

@@juliocadavid6640 Close isn't close enough for Magnus, apparently.

[@someone-jl4sj]

Bullet championship isn't an official championship

[@gibranlacandau9507]

Some big facts you have here! Having left the crown, hopefully now he can focus more on these titles

[@VaishakhNair1997]

These are variants/formats. Purely speaking of classical chess only the World Cup eludes him.

Go Magnus!!

[@nedogsagaming7859]

Magnus is best

[@dark_Knightr2532]

GO Magnus!!

[@darkwarlord3224]

Magnus too op not to win this tourney

[@Jack78680]

This would settle the GOAT debate once and for all.

[@blitzthepawns2427]

It’s already settled buddy

[@grammarnazi9440]

Goat debate?😂no it won’t tbh it’s not a settler in any way.

[@Mr.Moneybags40]

magnus won ?..what else is new

[@KnightToRemember]

I’m a Magnus fan but I wouldn’t bet on him at all

[@tatsuyasigh1906]

It's a knockout format so anything can happen ofc

[@gibranlacandau9507]

@@tatsuyasigh1906totally!

[@alexanderkononov1862]

hes the best bet by far, but obviously the world cup is unpredictable

[@KnightToRemember]

@@alexanderkononov1862 not by far, I wouldn’t say Caruana or Hikaru have much worse chances

[@alexanderkononov1862]

@@KnightToRemember Caruana in my opinion quite a bit worse in faster time controls, and a lof of these matches will end a tiebrak, so i wouldnt be surprised if he gets eliminated earlier than expected, for Hikaru lets see how sharp he is in classical, hope all 3 go far!

[@loikkahhori8660]

I think Magnus has one last chance to win the World Cup. Youth is coming...

It's him who said he doesn't want to play without the Russian flag 🤷‍♂️
