lasker emanuel:Шахматы: кто величайший - Фишер, Каспаров или Карлсен?
На самом деле величайшие все трое. Хотя среди них всё-таки выделяется Фишер, но не в плане шахмат. Как говорил сам Гарри Каспаров: Фишер хоть и был гением в шахматах, но имел весьма примитивные представления об окружающем Мире. В принципе, я согласен с Каспаровым.
What happens when Magnus Carlsen comes with an intention that he wants to play fast. He just doesn't want to think much and takes complex decisions in mere seconds. This happened against one of his arch rivals Levon Aronian. How did Aronian react to it? What happened in this battle. Join in this thrilling game from the Tata Steel Chess India Blitz 2019 with the commentary of IM Sagar Shah.
Remarkable to see how much Carlsen is praising Nakamura. 10 years ago he wouldn't have made these comments:
"The first couple of games he was outplaying me completely."
"I've seen Hikaru crush everybody else"
"He was playing a lot faster than I was, and he was playing much better"
"The guy is just a beast"
"I am extremely impressed. I always knew that he was good, I always thought he was somewhat better at bullet, but that he was so much better, I didn't realize. It's insanely impressive."
"Hikaru is very strong"

Carlsen has five losses against a sub-2700 player since 2013, but only two since 2015 (both teenagers):

vs Hammer, Norway Chess 2015
vs Pelletier, European Team Ch 2015
vs Esipenko, Tata Steel Chess 2021
vs Niemann, Sinquefield Cup 2022

And this was Carlsen's 4th classical loss in 2023, more than he had in any of the years 2018-2022, and the highest percentage-wise since 2015.

Meanwhile Ding hasn't lost to a single teenager as world champion, it really makes you think

Magnus Carlsen: "My chess club Offerspill, they have a camp right now for young talented players where Ramesh, Pragg's coach, is the main coach. One of my friends who attended it told me that Ramesh was always telling them 'be like Pragg, be like Pragg'. So I told Pragg that we all want to be like him today."
