Probably in terms of promoting the game he might be the best of this wave of talented Indian players. He comes across very well in interviews, displaying good humor and charm. All of the Indian players impress in terms of being very down to earth and modest. Anand taught them well.

Congratulations Vidit. Really appreciate your progress in the last 1 year and it must be due to drastic changes made in your gameplay as well as attitude and motivation. There was a time for almost 3 - 4 years that you seemed to be stuck in a rating range of 2700 to 2720 but I believe that the fast-developing Indian teenage juniors have given you a chess check to either develop or perish and you seem to have bravely chosen to develop. Kudos to you👏. I foresee a good candidates tournament for you, which never seemed a reality even 6 months back. You have earned genuine respect and admiration now..

[@deepaklachman9340]

Imo Jorden lost on purpose against Anish. There is no way Anish plays the french against jorden and basically wins the game right out of the opening by trapping a minor piece. Dutch people are extremely racist but still they won't hesitate to throw the dutch flag around the shoulders of a person who is darker than the night if the person wins some prestigious prize. Tomorrow Anish plays warmerdam and it would not surprise me if Anish wins an easy game again.
