Is Magnus Carlsberg afraid of Gukesh?
Magnus being the legend of his game, chess, is afraid of flavourful moves by Gukesh! And have laughed at the face of challenging him. It's been more than once I've noticed Magnus downplaying the winnings & moves of Gukesh. Recently he called out Gukesh arrogant and naive for being mad by his recent draw before his big win. Now after the win, he is claiming the whole competition to being flawed!… Ahh yess One more think… childsplay!!🙌 I actually think he's a bit worried now there can be another better grand master than him. For more context Magnus won his first championship at the age 23, while Gukesh won at 18. 🙌Gukesh is the youngest ever championship holder! #kudos👏
