He is the best in the world for a reason! I have lost count of how many times people say the other top GMs are "this" close to magnus but never beat or reached his level. He is truly the goat for me alongside kasparov and Bobby fisher.

Always great to see Magnus further cementing his status as the GOAT. Congrats to Magnus on the win, and congrats to Wesley for a well-fought 2nd

2:56:00 Levy interviewing Magnus

This is a way better format than the FIDE Championship. Much more exciting to watch, more interesting for the players, novel decision trees generated from shorter time control paired with the playoff format. Glad we have this series. On that note, great production work for the event coverage. Especially with the pub crowd interspersed with the quality commentating, the fun and creative interludes, the graphics -- it all feels more like a sporting event than chess has ever felt. Kudos to the team.

That was extremely confident win for Magnus. He wasn't even close to getting into trouble for whole tournament. Only Fabi was a some challenage but still 2:0 on sets.
-
Love the way GM David Howell and GM Robert Hess comment the matches. A lot of common sense. A big like and encouragement to keep doing their work!

the leg falling off the table at 1:20:05 ☠

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT THAT'S WHY HE'S THE MVP THAT'S WHY HE'S THE GOAT... THE GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
-
As someone said once, every tournament Magnus play he has an advantage, cause he doesn't have to play Magnus 😆
-
3:38:59 You could interpret it as “Both pieces are forked” or “Both pieces are f&$ked”. Either way it would be a fitting end to this tournament!
-
The best moment - Magnus being presented with a photo of a trophy, which is the actual trophy hahahahaha
-
This was my first ever chess tourney and I'm glad it was reccomended to me, I got totally hooked. I do wish producttion would be better about showing the board bigger tho.
-
Really looking forward to next saison! Amazing work, great success!!
-
wesley is classy as always even in defeat (cheers!)
-
Congratulations Magnus. First time I follow the tour pretty much live. Thanks for the show.

Why is the main camera always centred on the players and not the chess board. Can't even see the chess board
-
Fabi, Ian, Ding are really close to Magnus if he is having a “BAD DAY”
-
Good luck to both!
-
Wtf is that trophy!!! Never seen anything like that as a trophy 😮😮
