SPOT ON CHESS PUZZLES: GM Vidit & Vaishali Rameshbabu WIN BIG!
Indian Chess Players Mop up at FIDE GRAND SWISS!
An Indian gentleman by the name of Vidit Gujrathi has won the Men’s FIDE GRAND SWISS with eight and half points out of a possible eleven. His closest pursuer was American Hikaru Nakamura who managed a draw in the final round against Indian GM Arjun Erigaisi. Four Indian players actually took spots in the top 13 places including GM Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa who has already qualified for the 2024 candidates. He also has a sister that plays chess…
In the Women’s FIDE GRAND SWISS Vaishali Rameshbabu took first place! Surely a first - a sister and brother team at the Candidates! She played solid chess and this is the latest in several phenomenal results she has scored in her most recent tournaments. With her brother rated at 2727 they surely have plenty to discuss and prepare for in the upcoming candidates matches. She is well on her way to scoring a Men’s or Open Grandmaster’s title and her 2448 rating is nothing to sneeze at. Especially and particularly in light of the fact that she keeps winning more and more rating points! The blitz games they play must be fierce in that household!
The GAME:
GM Vidit Gujrathi versus GM Alexandr Predke
FIDE GRAND SWISS 2023, Round 11, 11/04/2023

Thanks for taking some time and tuning in, I appreciate it. If you could leave a “like”, “share” and “subscribe” that would help me deal with the “cyber hall monitors” as they do tend to play favorites. The social media landscape is curated for our enjoyment and for “exposure” but we still have a vote. If you feel I deserve a vote of your confidence for what I am doing then please do give me your vote. I want to thank you in advance and I want you to know that it makes it worth while to do this posts if I know people are looking at them and appreciate them. Thanks again.
Stay healthy, be well and always play the best moves in the game of life! ~ Sean.
