FIDE Candidates Open: Gukesh, Pragg, 3 Others Have Realistic Chance To Win Title, Says GM Susan Polgar
Russian GM Ian Nepomniachtchi: It is too close to predict who will come out on top of the Open category in the 2024 FIDE Candidates Tournament in Toronto with five players, including two young Indian chess Grandmasters (GM), D. Gukesh and R. Praggnanandhaa, in the race, said former women’s world champion (1996-99), GM Susan Polgar.
The winners of the Candidates Tournament -- Open and Women's categories -- will get a shot at the world title against the incumbent world champions from China -- GM Liren Ding (Open) and GM Wenjun Ju (Women's).
“It is too close to call. Nepo (Russian GM Ian Nepomniachtchi) has the experience, but Gukesh also looks very motivated. So are GMs Fabiano Caruana, Hikaru Nakamura, and Praggnanandhaa,” Polgar told IANS.
