– It feels very, very good, says Magnus Carlsen. It has now been about a week since the Norwegian world star outclassed Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa in two replays in the World Cup final. In this news interview, Carlsen says that this particular victory tasted particularly good. – There are few things I have wanted to win more than this in the last couple of years. So it’s a great feeling, says the Norwegian. – The collection complete After the winner was a fact, he published the following “cheeky” message on X/Twitter: Facsimile: Screenshot X/Twitter In the message, Carlsen writes: “Chess?”, followed by a GIF with the text “completed”. The message has received more than 43,000 likes and, at the time of writing, has been seen by 1.7 million users. – What did you mean by that message? – It’s just that this was, in a way, the only major in classical chess that I haven’t won. Now that collection is complete, I am very pleased with that, says Carlsen. – Have you simply got the hang of it? – Yes. Classic chess anyway. It is clear that there are always things that can be achieved, but I have come as close to rounding the game as possible, I know, says Carlsen with a broad smile. – Greatest chess player in the world of all time In the list of Carlsen’s merits, you can find, among other things, five World Championship golds in classical chess, four World Championship golds in rapid chess and six World Championship golds in lightning chess. Chess expert Torstein Bae described the winner as “a fantastic achievement”. – When you look at all his triumphs, the world cup, world championship, long chess, rapid chess, lightning chess and so on. There is no longer any other way of looking at it than that Magnus Carlsen is the greatest chess player in the world of all time, Bae concludes to news. Confronted with the chess star’s statement that he has completed the classical part of chess, Bae responds as follows: CLEAR SPEECH: Chess expert Torstein Bae is crystal clear that Magnus Carlsen is the greatest chess player of all time. Photo: Lars Bryne / news – It’s clear that he’s got the ball rolling in a way, he’s won absolutely everything. It could perhaps be said before this as well, that he could in good conscience withdraw. At the same time, I think he is eager to win even more. But what does it actually mean to win for Lommedalen’s chess chess? – The one thing he hasn’t won is the WC in Fischer chess. So it is perhaps the only thing we can still say that stands. We hope there will be another WC in the spring. Otherwise, the big thing is for the Magnus WC in rapid chess and blitz chess, which have colossal prestige, says Bae. At the same time, the chess expert believes that it is only a matter of time before Carlsen, who has already said that he does not want to play the WC in Long Chess, pulls out of the tournament format entirely. Carlsen confirms to news that the motivation for long chess is small, but that he is not quite done with it, quite yet. – I will probably primarily play when I feel there are some special occasions. Preferably if it’s for social reasons, a little more for fun, says Carlsen.
