samay is a must have friend man. the way he appreciated sagar bhai's hardwork for wht he does to chess. love u both

[saidhanush]

Man I hope people dont hate on Gukesh he is just 18 years old he still needs time to mature so according to me it doesn't matter if he wins or loses he has already won a place in Indians Heart

[Wargasm]

That was stunning. Dings infiltration behind Gukesh’s pawn wall was truly mind blowing. Either Ding is the greatest Chinese actor or he was playing possum for a year. Or perhaps he was gathering data on unorthodox tactics? Whatever it was, it was pure brilliance. Glad to see Rapport back as his no. 2. Guki needs to shake it off and find his zen.

Ding Mann What a Comeback With blacks Respect+++

3:11:50 Vidit and his fiancé Nidhi. Congratulations guys ❤️💐

[alancosta]

The fact Ding has literally zero expectations on him makes him very chill, unlike Gukesh.

[Bliss-vj]

Great mentality from Gukesh during the interview. What an amazing game. Couldn’t have asked for a better game.

[Wreathed_in_ss]

3:18:28 This moment is what we all are waiting for. Rooting for Gukesh 🔥

[Chesscap-crcc]

My 💎 diamond words to all
That
Whether gukesh won or loose we never forget that he is just 18 years old and a nice player

Coming to DING he is so kind and humble and a nice player


Chess is a game of some accuracy and concentration

They both are equally accurate and almost equally great player.

We never forger that they both are doing work (karma)
And the result (fal) is only given by GOD
We can't predict that all games will be won by DING or GUKESH

Whosever win they r both nice :)

[rsr.]

Congratulations to Ding! Very happy to see him smiling again and ofc winning again! And all the best to both for the remaining rounds!

[zaynmallik]

Guys ding is the same perso who magnus in 2019 said fabi nd ding are only on his level when they are at best ....ding is on his best level is scary ....so ding can't be underestimated....

[AbhishekChoudharyB]

I wish gukesh comes back stronger. Ding really surprised the world today. Everyone will be talking about it, not sure if him being out of the form was all act or what.
But surely gukesh gotta prepare so much for upcoming matches.

[MrKnight-xo]

1:29:28 Commentator: When an unstoppable force meet some moveable object
Ding: Are you sure about that?

[Rio_arc]

As Magnus' father had said...nothing can prepare you for the feel of the first game of a World But koi nahi Ding had also lost his 1st white game of the match in 2023....Good luck Guki ❤
