Well done Sagar with these interviews. The way everyone is so comfortable and gives you hours of interviews sometimes exclusively is testament to your hard work you have done over the years and your good intentions and your style of comfortable conversations (never looking for TRP Drama) I remember you said in one of your streams that few years back you would not get even the invitations to cover the tournaments. So happy for you

Finally, Pearls of wisdom

[@nemeczek67]

0:02 "Grzegorz" is hard to pronounce for non-natives and as a rule of thumb Poles never say their surname first. In communist times it was the norm to go surname first, followed by the first name, so this is probably the reason why we find it objectionable.

[@haimkichik]

This is hitory, pure inside of unique momments. Awesome.

[@jondebeer6863]

Gukesh fought while the old guard only woke up when it was too late. The other young guys also fought but caught a few unlucky losses. It could have been anyone, and Gukesh made the best choices in this tournament. The fact that he's so young makes it exceptional, so let's see how he does in a long match. He's been the most impressive young guy for a while now. I do fear that if he wins, his win will be overshadowed by Ding being lost and the best player not even participating.

[@eragonmerlin]

A world champion is a world champion. Like you alluded, everyone else had the same chances.

[@imnoobplshelp]

well to be fair his win will always be overshadowed even if he wins. nepo had the greatest candidates performance in history in 2022, and ding was the only 2800 player in the world other than magnus, yet, they were both overshadowed by magnus not participating.

[@donramanayake1505]

The difference is it has been established over 10 years that Magnus can dominate ding, fabi, Nepo etc. with the young players, who are still gaining in strength Magnus cannot with the same confidence keep holding to that - every generation in chess has been better than the last. The change in guard is welcome and time for Magnus to prove he's capable to fend off these guys as well.

Very good Sagar! Small suggestion: It's a more interactive setting to stand the camera sideways, and cover both interviewer and interviewee in the frame.

[@Interspirituality]

fair enough, but my two cents: it’s fine the way it is, and I think they should find their own style!

[@anuragparasharsarmah1045]

When you interview seconds, can you ask how exactly these top GMs train. Do they just work on openings, or studies? Do they practice in classical time control? Do they do blindfold chess? How do they identify where work could be put? To improve technique do they practice end games? I am asking this because these players are already at the highest level. What more could they train for? I haven't completed this video. Probably you asked.

[@kaviwardhman]

Beautiful interview. I have a few questions for him - 1. In the second half of the tournament, Gukesh's avg centipawn loss was 5 which is insane. What are his thoughts about this? 2. While watching Gukesh's games live, what does he prefer- with commentary or FIDE video feed without commentary?

[@makunahatata8700]

Vishy played game even after semi retiring to build a chess academy for the young generation to challenge magnus.

[@dragoon14270]

Toronto main meetuo hine wala tha na vo video khan ha

[@mithileshjnaik]

Listening to him, I already can feel he is a champion himself. Salute!

[@imnoobplshelp]

Most likely he will not. Even if ding lost Ian in tata, and performed badly in 9LX and grenke, the only classical he played is tata, and idk if you saw his games but he played brilliant moves and demolished gukesh with over an hour left on the clock. he has a 2-0 record against him. too early to tell
