I’m excited to be part of this team and to compete in Hong Kong this June!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING WSOP SUPER CIRCUIT - CYPRUS

After deep reflection, I have taken the difficult decision to withdraw from the FIDE Women’s Candidates Tournament. No event, no matter how important, can come before personal safety and well-being. Despite the assurances provided, I do not feel fully secure under the current circumstances. This is a painful but necessary decision, and I stand by it.

My sincere respect to @WadimRosenstein and the WR Chess team for their unwavering love for the game and their thoughtful commitment to the well-being of players🙏

Dear chess friends, I am closely following the current situation in Cyprus and understand that it is becoming increasingly critical. With @humpy_koneru Humpy Koneru reportedly considering participation in the Candidates Tournament, it becomes even more important to ensure that all players can compete in a safe and stable environment. In this regard, FIDE has already been informed of our readiness to support and provide an immediate solution if required. Should it be necessary, we stand ready to act immediately. We can organize the Candidates Tournament in Germany, ensuring maximum safety and reliability for all participants and officials. Germany offers world-class infrastructure and security - conditions essential for an event of this importance. All organizational and logistical expenses would be fully covered by WR Chess, with our full commitment and responsibility. Our priority is clear: to protect the players, preserve the integrity of the competition, and ensure that the tournament can take place under the best possible conditions. @anishgiri @GMHikaru @FabianoCaruana @ChessbaseIndia @humpy_koneru @rpraggnachess @GMJSindarov @FIDE_chess

I know that alone, I may not be able to change anything. But regardless of whether I play in the Candidates or not, I felt it was important to express what I genuinely feel. I’m truly grateful to everyone who has shown their support. . For those who cannot understand the sensitivity of this situation, I choose to leave it at that. worldchess.com/news/candidate…

🚨 HT EXCLUSIVE Humpy likely to pull out of Candidates in Cyprus over Iran war safety concerns  "It just doesn't make any sense. It’s dangerous to travel anywhere near West Asia at this point when there’s so much tension and uncertainty." +
