Gukesh already made history by becoming the youngest candidates tournament winner thereby the youngest world championship challenger🌟Wishing him all the best for WCC🧡May Bhagwan bless him more🙏

[@PseudoProphet]

He can win this year. 😂😂

[@kudzem]

It feels unfair that even he wins WCC he will not be considered the real champion just like Ding

[@zhanezar]

Gukesh is amazing may Allah Bless him 💚and Inshalla he will be World Champion ! Allah Akbar 💚

[@goblin.sIayer]

@@zhanezar Sorry to say but your comment sounds more religious than his appreciation

[@fku5113]

It's your mind buddy, like beauty lies in eye of beholder ❣️❣️

[@ChiragRaichandani]

Gukesh has already won all the hearts in India by winning candidates at such a young age ❤🥺. Wishing him best of luck for the world championship and for sure he will win everyone's heart all over the world ❤

[@Fkashmhd]

Kudos to CBI and Sagar Shah for such an unfiltered interview and getting not politically corrected answers from FIDE CEO. It gives a raw insight. Eagerly waiting for Gukesh's detailed interview. Hope it comes out soon. Also, interview of Vaishali - 5 contiguous wins, what am achievement. Too much emotion, I guess I should hold back my typing for next video. 😅

[@manurshankar1465]

Yes 5 continuous wins is a tremendous achievement by Vaishali. She felt some nerves in the initial stages. A 5 win streak in a strong candidates tournament after being in last place shows what a fighter she is. Thanks to the fide CEO for putting this achievement in perspective! Our media should be shouting about this as well!

[@darienspeak8405]

A Big shout out to @Scheinberg for organising and consistently holding the FIDE Event. Hope they extend it after 2026 as well. Truly in the making of a Legend

[@roshanthapa8487]

Guki you stole our hearts. ❤

[@LaggardInLove]

Good interview! Mr Sutovsky seems to be a great ambassador for chess.

He did not give a single credit to chessbase India channel

Gukesh is stunning and brave, and the world loves him, we just love him! 😍

[@armingleiner5292]

I hope Gukesh wins and then I hope that Magnus will make a WC comeback.

[@tillm2481]

He won‘t..the only way would have been a Nakamura WC..who then agrees to change the system..more and shorter games..Carlsen is not interested anymore in the classical system

[@KickingtheDonksNuts]

Pothead Carlsen doesn't like to play for long. He is weak and old. Only plays shorter 1 hour games

[@georgeray649]

System won't change bro. Magnus won't challenge.

[@georgeray649]

​@@KickingtheDonksNutsokay?

[@sk-ig4wt]

bro i like classical chess more than blitz , blitz or rapid are very bad imo , it doesn't allow players to analyse deep lines , so even if they are great there are some lines they cant even analyse​@@tillm2481

Regarding World Championship Schedule @13:29

[@rishesmishra1740]

Thanks a lot. Fast forwarded the whole video but couldn't find it

[@vishalvenkat6074]

Thankss!!

[@manjilmanjil3003]

Its actually positive news for Gukesh. Ding is still not in his form and if WCC would have held next year, I guess he would have recovered his form but now it will be held in November, can't be sure but Gukesh sure have so much chance.

[@Rupalroy-ft9wp]

Don't be overjoyed...this is not a easy thing

[@lordwiz2236]

Ya it's not like ding is sleeping. They have a good crop of players themselves. And they will surely be having training session and tournaments for ding to practice .

[@frankwang6366]

he actually was not in his form last wcc since he didn't even know he was going to be in the candidates until last minute, he still won the wcc anyways. he knew he's going to be defending his title the second he won the wcc, he will be more in shaped

[@NEVV03_TKG]

A Candidates like no other!! Gukesh showed that it is humanly possible even if you are just 17!! Man, that was next level! Many congratulations and love. Vaishali was on a rampage. Unprecedented. She deserves all applauds and appreciation. Many congratulations Vaishali 👋👋

[@georgeray649]

5 wins on a trot

[@shahyash1989]

Let's go Gukiiii.... World Champion!!!!!

[@loLler781229]

I believe the best venue for WCC match is Bagio, Philippines. Its neither players homeground, but still in neighborhood, it holds historical significance, and in general a boost for chess in another asian country.

[@nationmaker]

I think Hyderabad is the right place for world championship

[@VaRag98]

Good to see such truthfulness at top. Refreshing

[@arpanmanna7990]

I really hope AICF goes all in with the World Championship bid. It would be monumental to have the change of generational guard in India.

[@Eripme]

Will ding agree with indian as venue? China did not participate in Olympiad when it happened in india

[@ShubhLakshnaPandey]

All the best Gukesh bhai ❤

[@barnabasastrofengia5345]

It was really excellent to see Gukesh play so well this Candidates. A hearty congratulations to Gukesh 🙂❤️

[@amritmund2844]

Can’t imagine. It’s Guki vs Ding now. November is so close.

[@arihantsinha8137]

Thanks FIDE and Emil it was such a fun tournament to watch. The idea of open and women together was brilliant. It allowed us to recognise and pay more attention to Women's tournaments. Only a small detail that most of the nights were sleepless! Chess players and personalities are so genuine, humble and such class acts. Hope to see more tournaments. Hopefully some in India too.

[@chuhai4172]

can't wait to see gukesh dommaraju vs ding liren in the world chess championship 2024!

[@abhinavyadav1107]

Enjoyed it very much sagar bhai come back to india soon and i want you samay and gukesh to do a stream together please make it possible

[@raajjann]

Indeed nicely organized. I am only following online. But looking at videos, even the actual physical venue etc., seemed to have been organized very very well!

[@happytrader4519]

Both Guki and Ding are the sweetest people ever competed in a WC final unlike Kasparov Kramnik Magnus who are just super brash and cocky

[@ChiragRaichandani]

Letss gooo 🥳🥳❤

[@barnabasastrofengia5345]

How come no other companies compete with FIDE ? Isn’t FIDE a Monopoly ? Regardless, I’m very glad that FIDE exists, yet it would be quite nice if other companies were in competition with FIDE (as this would be better for the game of chess and all worldwide future chess talent). This really is a very odd thing 🤔 I’m guessing that it’s legal for FIDE to be a Monopoly and somehow have no other competition ?

[@datdudeinred]

Make the wc happen in Mumbai & make Taj hotel as sponsor & let players & seconds & all supporting personnel stay there. That would really make India shine & show them that they can have many outstanding tournaments in India.

[@frankwang6366]

You can't have a tournament in a players home country as it will be unfair for the opponent, It is possible that they do half of the tournament in India and half in China, but it's prob just easier and make more sense in a third country

[@IndranilFromIndia]

I was supporting Pragg all along because Pragg has beaten Ding in classical. Gukesh has a poor record against Ding, that's why I was rooting for Naka. If Ding gets back into form he will win against Guki. Nevertheless this is a great moment for Indian chess - congrats Gukesh and all the fans!

[@mattolivier1835]

So, in November we will find out who the 2nd best player in the world is?

Is Ding even playing anymore?

Yes, if he looses, first he will have to qualify for candidates then win it then he can challenge Ding again and the next candidates will be in 2026, not in 2025

Emil saying FIDE brought people to chess is such a brazen lie. Kudos to FIDE for marginally improving playing conditions for women, but they've done nothing at all for popularizing the sport.
