There are now 11 Indians in Top 100 chess players list. iirc the number was 4 or 5 before the pandemic. High probability of 3-4 more Indian players entering the top 100 in a year or two (x)

This was perhaps the most heartbreaking game of #TataSteelChess, and certainly for Warmerdam!

The leading masters of the 1890s were onto something when they said that "the most difficult part of chess is to win a won game." Maghsoodloo was utterly lost as early as move 13 against Warmerdam, but he turned it around in an unbelievable fashion.(x)
20 years ago today, MagnusCarlsen brilliantly defeated Dutch GM Sipke Ernst in the #TataSteelChess Grandmaster Group C. At the age of 13, Carlsen won the group with 10½/13 and scored his first GM norm.(x)
