Chess World Champions are exceptional players. But there are a few geniuses that created masterpieces like the world champions but never became one. One of them is Polish Genius Rubinstein. In 1907, he created the 'Immortal Game'. It makes you fall in love with chess 🧵👇

WIM Shubhi Gupta (2242) from Uttar Pradesh scored her first WGM norm at the Munich IM norm tournament 2026 happening in Germany. The 2010 born youngster had just achieved her WIM title just a month ago and has now shown tremendous performance to take the next big step in her career. Shubhi scored 6.5/9, scoring 4 wins and 5 draws, remaining unbeaten, performing at an Elo of 2433 and narrowly missing out on her IM norm. She also gained 92 Elo points, taking her to 2334 on the rating list. The youngster is trained by GM Swapnil Dhopade and is supported by Pravaha Foundation as her sponsor! We wish Shubhi the best in her journey of getting the remaining two WGM norms and becoming the next WGM of India! #chess #chessbaseindia #shubhigupta #talent

My long time dream project will be formally launched tomorrow at Chennai. The launch of the project @CholaChess sponsored by the Cholamandalam group thanks to the kindness and big heart of @Vellayan_S and @KanikaSubbiah will be graced by the presence of Five- time World Champion and the legendary @vishy64theking Anand. Alongside, the website cholachess.com will be launched as well so that the deserving players can directly register for the free monthly camps according to their ratings. We have run the project on a pilot basis for the last 6 months. Already completed 36 camps, more than 150 students, more than 15 Grand Masters as students. Thanks to @ChessbaseIndia and @chesscom_in for agreeing to live stream and cover the event. There will be an exhibition match between @rpraggnachess @pawnof64squares @KarthikeyanM64 @Praneshchess which will be covered live from 3 pm IST onwards.

Back-to-back wins against Magnus isn’t luck — it’s a statement. Gukesh isn’t just cementing his status as the world champ... He’s pushing for something bigger: respect from the greatest. 🔥 The rivalry is real. What’s your take: Is Gukesh now the man to beat in world chess?

The final picturesque position. White's King is completely exposed. Black's Knights protect each other like real brothers. Black's Rook ready to deliver the lethal check on a3. Magnus kept playing a few more moves out of inertia. But the game was sealed.
