I have a simple rule in life, if you are to fight the champ in anything - do it virtually😉
I've fought some tough opponents in the ring, but I've never faced anyone like @magnuscarlsen in a game of chess. He's a true champ. Wish me the best for October 1, when I appear on the @champchesstour show! #ChessChamps @MPac_Foundation

The chess world is a better place when Vishy Anand holds a worse endgame against Magnus Carlsen. 🤣👏 #icons #GrandChessTour

Always good to remind ourselves of ministerial support. Here, the French Minister of Education states (April 2018) 'Like you, I am a big fan of chess. I think it has many life benefits and that is why I encourage chess everywhere, including in schools...'

"Programs usually reflect priorities and prejudices of programmers, but because AlphaZero programs itself, I would say that its style reflects the truth." Awesome words from the brilliant @Kasparov63 - read Kasparov's insightful review of #AlphaZero here: science.sciencemag.org/conte…

Carlsen’s consistent level of play in rapid chess is phenomenal. We all play worse as we play faster and faster, but his ratio may be the smallest ever, perhaps only a 15% drop off. Huge advantage in this format.

On Chess as the ultimate democratic sport @RealSportsHBO “Chess should be everywhere. A lot of sports you have to be tall, have a lot of equipment, or access to a golf course. It’s amazing to just carry a chess set and find someone to play with” @soledadobrien to @JenShahade
