But Could Delhi Have Been Better for Chess Glory? In chess, where strategy and foresight reign supreme, the choice of venue for the World Chess Championship isn't merely logistical—it's a statement that resonates across borders and cultures. The recent decision to host the championship in Singapore, albeit strategic, prompts a reflection on the potential of Delhi, India's vibrant capital, as an equally fitting host with a broader global appeal. Delhi and Chennai emerged as formidable contenders to host the prestigious World Chess Championship. Chennai, renowned as the hometown of young chess prodigy Gukesh D, garnered support from the Tamil Nadu state government. Meanwhile, Delhi, backed by India's central government, stood out with its rich cultural heritage and extensive global connectivity. Emil Sutovsky, FIDE CEO, underscored, “Neutrality was a decisive factor. Singapore presented a balanced platform for fair competition.” However, Delhi’s bid promised not just neutrality but also a chance to showcase chess’s universal appeal amidst its iconic landmarks and cultural diversity. Looking Ahead- India’s Chess Future While Singapore’s selection is a testament to neutrality and Southeast Asia’s chess heritage, it’s heartening to note FIDE’s plans for a major event in India in 2025. India, a chess powerhouse, continues to inspire young players globally. As we anticipate future tournaments, Delhi’s bid may not have succeeded this time, but its potential as a host city remains undeniable. It is a beacon for showcasing India’s passion for chess and its ability to host world-class events on par with any global metropolis. Let's continue championing chess's universal appeal and advocate for future #tournaments that bridge cultures and show international sportsmanship. Let’s watch as Gukesh D and Ding Liren make history on this neutral ground, and may their games inspire us all. Follow the games, support the #players, and immerse yourself in the #chess culture. #SRCA #Checkmatesrcastyle #chess #chess2024 #grandmaster #chessknowledge
